The Humboldt penguin is a resident of South America, with its range being between subtropical Peru and arid Chile. They breed according to food availability, and often breed after molting.

Scan your e-ticket at the gate and you will be at the Orchid Garden. Work your way to the air-conditioned Penguin Cove to watch the King, Gentoo, Northern Rockhopper and Humboldt penguins flying underwater. In the area where the penguins are housed, the water and air temperature are maintained at a low of 8°C with special lighting that mimics the changes in day length in the different seasons - all to simulate the natural habitat of the penguins. Also remember to watch documentaries on the penguins at the Theater.

If you are not interested in the birds in tuxedo, maybe have a Penguin Bao (S$3.90+) to munch on. This is just your average tau sar bao (red bean paste bun) selling at marked up rate. If you have spare moolah, by all means buy one or a box of 4s to try.

🆔 Humboldt Penguin (Spheniscus humboldti)

“The title compares the black and white plumage of the penguins to the black and white robes of Dominican monks. It was intended to be both gently comic and more bitingly satirical. Marks was noted for both his humourous subjects and his paintings of birds. In his autobiography he notes that birds made better models that humans, since they were less conceited, less greedy and less boring.”

I went to the Houston Zoo yesterday. Many of the enclosures for their charismatic megafauna have been improved by leaps and bounds in the 2 decades I've been visiting... also, the chimp I showed my drawings to seemed unimpressed.
