Penguin's spotted in da UP

[chet]

Our local news last night, had video of a bunch of Penguins out on frozen Lake Superior in Marquette.     Sad ta say they looked right at home.  :D  A closer look showed they were painted plywood cutouts placed by one of da locals.
Maybe member Pasbuild can git a pic of dem for us.

Folks, I must apologize.  I sent a semi load of cedar poles to Peoria Il for a zoo to hold the penguins.  This was last year or the year before, I don't remember.  They must have escaped.

They are decoys to attract the real penguins when they fly over.

With the lake 95% frozen these little guys may be around fer a while

I don't think so. Penguins can't fly. They take the bus.

You didn't watch the Madagascar movies did ya ?  :D
Having young kids they are on high rotation.  :

We have penguins in NZ, and areas around Wellington they even nest under people houses. Street signs say "Watch for Penguins" etc

Here in the Great White North they are known as kiki birds. As in KIKIKIKERIPES IT'S COLD

Looks like the area has just qualified as penguin habitat. 

Might be the equivalent of introducing fossil bone chips on a earth moving project. 

[WmFritz]

I read the MI DNR introduced them to eradicate Zebra Mussels and Asian Carp in the Great Lakes.

I can finally sell all these Penguin calls I made...
