Little penguin loves his human

The little penguin (Eudyptula minor) is the smallest species of penguin.

It grows to an average of 13 in. in height and 17 in. in length. It is found on the coastlines of southern Australia and New Zealand.

In Australia, they are often called fairy penguins because of their small size. In New Zealand, they are more commonly known as little blue penguins or blue penguins owing to their slate-blue plumage’
