Penguins at the St. Louis Zoo
May 29th, 2008I 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!
