乐生活Last time we talked about the biggest penguin, this time we’ll look at the smallest Penguin horn! The smallest penguin is called Eudyptula minor, also known as Little Penguin, Blue Penguin, Immortal Penguin, Immortal Penguin, Small Fin Feet Penguin. They have blue feathers that haunt the coasts of South Australia and New Zealand.
Little blue penguins are about 43 centimeters tall and weigh about 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds). Males are slightly larger than females, and feathers are not much different. The head and back are indigo blue, the ears are blue-gray and the abdomen is white. The fins are indigo-blue on the outside and white on the inside. The dark grey-black beak is about 3 to 4 cm long, the upper side of the foot is white, and the soles and webs are black. Young blue penguins have short beaks and light indigo feathers.
A tourist attraction on Philip Island in southeastern Melbourne attracts up to 500,000 visitors a year, thanks to the small blue penguin. Visitors can watch small blue penguins swim ashore at night. The area has enough lights to allow visitors to observe the interaction of penguins in the community. Because of the timid nature of the small blue penguins, the park rules can not photograph, tourists will respect cooperation, so the penguins in the park will not be harassed. Visitors to the resort can also take a tour of Penguin Island and observe their primitive life and behavior when they visit Perth, the capital of Western Australia. In addition, the Little Blue Penguin Conservation Center in New Zealand is also a good place to watch penguins.
