Penguins?

Cute little guys.

Not a Penguin. There are no penguins in North America. Your bird looks good for a Thick-billed Murre.

Not sure what type of birds these are but they're interesting to see.

Cute, whatever they are.

Definitely not a murre. Look like Penguins to me--little blue perhaps. Where was the shot taken?

They look like they are in a zoo. But I just looked at every known penguin species and saw nothing that looked like these. Whatever they are, they are cute little things.

Cute buggers and purple feet too...

Maybe Little Penguins?

After looking at this picture again not in the middle of the night they certainly aren't Murres. I assume these pictures were not taken in the wild if they are from the US. Were these at a zoo?

Cute or what?! They look like Fairy (or Little Blue) Penguins, indigenous to southern Australia and New Zealand apparently.
