For Penguin Awareness Day the penguins at Edinburgh Zoo were fed with bubbles to celebrate!

The bubble machine was given as a Christmas gift through the Zoo’s Amazon wishlist set up for the animals.

Lorna Moffat, penguin keeper at RZSS Edinburgh Zoo said: “Our colony of over 130 birds enjoy lots of different types of enrichment, from their water slide to their floating platforms, but the bubble machine is always a firm favourite so getting a new one is fantastic.

“All three of our penguin species loved playing with the bubbles, especially our youngest rockhopper chick who was taking part for the first time.”
