EDITORS COMMENTS
Peek-a-boo! This Erect-crested Penguin is ready for its close-up, and it's got a surprise in store! Meet the ultimate multitasker - not only is this flightless wonder moulting, but it's also rocking an incredible nictitating membrane. Talk about a penguin with style! With its head held high and those captivating eyes locked on you, this single penguin from New Zealand knows how to steal the show. Don Hadden has captured every intricate detail of this charismatic sea bird, showcasing its unique features like never before. As the feathers fall during molting season, revealing patches of bare skin beneath, our feathery friend remains undeterred. Its erect crest stands tall as a symbol of confidence amidst change – truly an inspiration to us all! But wait. . . what's that? The nictitating membrane makes an appearance! Just when you thought penguins couldn't get any cooler, they whip out their very own built-in sunglasses. Whether it's protecting against harsh sunlight or splashing waves while hunting underwater, these adaptable creatures have got it covered. So go ahead and hang this print on your wall – let this charming penguin remind you to embrace life's transformations with grace and flair. After all, who says molting can't be fabulous?
