EDITORS COMMENTS
Meet Percy the Penguin, a quirky resident of Drayton Manor Park Zoo in Tamworth, Staffs back in September 1971. Known for his independent nature, Percy had a peculiar habit of venturing off on his own. However, the zoo staff always knew where to find him - spending hours inside the gents toilets! This amusing photograph captures Percy's unique fascination with public urinals and toilets. Standing tall amidst the porcelain fixtures, he seems perfectly at ease in this unexpected setting. Perhaps it was the cool tiles or simply an affinity for human facilities that drew him here. Percy's antics brought laughter and joy to both visitors and staff alike. His presence added an element of surprise and amusement to daily routines at Drayton Manor Park Zoo. This snapshot from 1971 showcases not only Percy's mischievous character but also highlights the lighter side of life within a zoo environment. Photographer Brian Randle has expertly captured this comical moment, immortalizing Percy's escapades forever through Memory Lane Prints. As we look back on this image today, we are reminded of how even our animal friends can have their own quirks and preferences.
