Percy the Penguin - The Quirky Resident of Drayton Manor Park Zoo
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this nostalgic print from September 1971, we catch a glimpse of Percy the Penguin at Drayton Manor Park Zoo in Tamworth, Staffs. Known for his peculiar habit of wandering off on his own, Percy has become somewhat of a local legend among the zoo staff. And if they ever need to locate him, there's one place they can always count on finding him - the gents toilets. With an inexplicable fascination for public urinals, Percy spends hours just standing around in these facilities. It's as if he finds solace and comfort amidst the hustle and bustle of human activity. Perhaps it reminds him of his natural habitat or simply satisfies his curious nature. This amusing snapshot captures not only Percy's idiosyncratic behavior but also highlights the unique bond between animals and humans at Drayton Manor Park Zoo. Visitors are often delighted by this charming penguin who adds an unexpected touch of humor to their zoo experience. The photographer Brian Randle skillfully immortalizes this moment with a blend of nostalgia and whimsy. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in unexpected places like public restrooms, extraordinary encounters can occur – even with a cottaging penguin named Percy!
