Penguins from around the world. Penguin pictures, penguin gifts and more penguin fun!

I visited the penguins at the St. Louis zoo this past week, and it was fantastic! The penguin exhibit is named “Penguin and Puffin Coast” I have a ton of photos and some neat video to share with you… but to start off with I’d like to show you the cool penguin art. There is a mosaic (a picture made of colored tiles) that greets you as you first enter into the indoor penguin exhibit, and it’s just lovely!

In this art piece there is a king penguin, a humboldt penguin and a puffin, which is not a penguin, but sometimes is mistaken for being a penguin.

The entire exhibit was so terrific I had to go through twice!

There are humboldt penguins outside with a waterfall and a pond. Inside there are king penguins, rockhopper penguins and gentoo penguins all happily living together… it’s really fun to see. They have rocks to jump around and a great water feature to swim in.

I had a fantastic time!

I just found my most favoritest bestest ever penguin find… for the month anyway. TeenyBeak, a polymer clay artist on etsy makes some of the most fabulous penguins ever! They are so dare cute! I’d buy them all if I didn’t care about eating for the next 3 months - ha!

I am loving etsy so much for all the fabulous penguins I am finding these days. I just found a great set of 4 hand painted penguin art squares. They’re beautiful!

This art was created by Rosiemade - she paints a variety of animals as well as name blocks.

Here is an absolutely adorable little hand stitched penguin… the creator has named Carl.

You can purchase this tiny cutie from the handsewn esty shop.

A baby little blue penguin at the New England aquarium is being cared for by two surrogate moms. The women are both biologists at the aquarium and are caring for this chick since I was rejected by its parents shortly after hatching.
