CommentLittle Penguin, resting after a very vocal session and sitting still. Next time I will shoot at a higher speed as this fellow would spontaneously break into a session of vocalisation and rapid head vibration without warning, I really missed some great photo opportunities because of the slower shutter speed. Thanks to the Birdlife Photographic Moderators for good advice. This replaces an earlier submission that didn't make the grade, all good learning. A close look at this fellow makes good sense as to why they use to be called the "Little Blue Penguin".
