Looks like high school: one punky outcast (the puffin) being gossiped about by the popular crowd (the murres).

I'm taller than a penguin. However, I was told that the tallest recorded emperer penguin was 6 feet tall, which is definately taller than I am.

This guy was so cute. This king penguin is known as "King Tut". Normally the penguins don't have name, but this 25 year old guy deserved his name. He is adorable!
