coelacanth Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 at 40cm long that would be an adult little blue penguin, and no it doesn't seem strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 They have a time (can't remember when it is) where they come ashore to malt and peoplr often thin they are sick or injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 well it seemed quite lost penguin probably knew where he was though this time of year their normal food supply is in shallower waters so they follow them they are best left alone when they come in shore one of this years rescue jobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenriswolf Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Yeah, my partner grew up in Seatoun and he said he used to see little blues all the time in the water round Seatoun/Miramar. They know what they're doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 get a licence and set your self up to do rescue and you can have your own though you only get to keep them til they are ready to go back to the wild 1 little blue probably eats about $20 of piper a week we have 3 blues, 1 little black shag now visiting about once a day for a top up feed and 3 whiteface herons doing the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenriswolf Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Good on you! Rehabilitation isn't really my thing - and besides, I've had terrible luck with birds. One finch and four pigeon fosters and only one pigeon survived Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
