About the artwork
African black-footed penguins, also called jackass penguins for their donkey-like braying call, are found on the coast of South Africa. Once near extinction due to collection of guano (feces but they use it for nesting), these little guys are making a comeback due to protections and groups helping them by creating safe nesting areas. Boulder's Beach is one place to see these comical birds and learn about the efforts being made on their behalf.Medium Details
