Miasto pingwinów

The older I get, the more I realize that few things can put a smile on my face like animals. And these penguins are a heartbreaker for me because I had the opportunity to meet them in person in Simon's Town. Not to mention the people who watch out for them and try to protect them from extinction. I was expecting a documentary full of those people talking about why penguin populations are still on the decline, how they work in pairs, how they live together, how much they eat in a day. That they would show it so beautifully in practice, with really nice commentary, came as a pleasant surprise. And at the end, a happy tear almost joined the smile. Penguins, you’re so adorable.
