Gentoo & Macaroni Penguins

This is another video I captured while visiting the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, TN. The main characters are Gentoo & Macaroni Penguins.

According to tnaqua.org (link is below) Black gentoo penguins have a white belly. They have brown eyes, yellow feet, and a yellow bill. Over their eyes, three white triangular patches on their black head meet. They have a tail that is larger than those of other penguins. Although males tend to be larger than females, it can be exceedingly challenging to tell them apart.

With an estimated nine million breeding pairs, macaroni penguins are the most prevalent penguin species in the world. The head and upper body are bluish black, and the underside is white. They have a broad pink-skinned bill that is reddish brown in color. Pink defines feet and legs. A golden-yellow crest that stretches from the middle of the forehead and swings backward above the eyes is the bird's most distinguishing characteristic. Despite having a similar coat of fur, females are smaller than males.
