Boulder Bay Penguin Colony

Nesting!
Just outside of Cape Town, in a tiny little town, there is an established colony of South African Penguins, or Jackass Penguins as they are sometimes called because of their absurd braying like donkeys.  The colony we viewed is not just the only one, there are colonies all down the coast from Cape Town to the Cape of Good Hope, but this one is set up for viewing through a national park.  They were such cute, but also strange animals and we had a good time  just watching them play, make strange noises and dig their nests as well.
