G'day all

I gleaned this from the ABC news website this morning...

Penguin found in Vic backyard

A penguin is happily ensconced in police care after
being found in a backyard in Victoria.

The Preston household called police when they
found the one-foot-tall, slightly malting penguin in
their backyard at about 2:30am AEDT this morning.

They have no idea how the it got there.

Meantime, the young penguin will wait its cell until
an expert arrives to collect it.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Is anyone able to find out what it is?  Probably a Little Penguin is the size
estimate is correct.

Cheers

Steve
