We here at 10,000 Birds are unsure how today became Penguin Awareness Day (though some jingoists think it’s National Penguin Awareness Day) but here we are, being aware of penguins. Enjoy Charlie’s marvelous photos of Motherly Love Penguin-Style and remember the sad day when Silo and Scrappy broke up.
PAD was on 1/20. As far as I can tell, it was popularized by a single blogger, The Penguin Geek starting in 2007. Funny to see how much online coverage it’s gotten this year. Proof that one bird blog can have an impact.
Eh, so we’re a day behind the times…
