4. Tuxedos
Their formal wear defends them
With their dark back and white fronts, penguins look like they're wearing tuxedos. But they're dressed for success—their color pattern makes it harder for predators to see them in the ocean. Looking down at a penguin, it's hard to see its dark back against the dark depths below; looking up, it's hard to see its white belly against the sunlit surface

Check ou the other cams! The Outer Bay is recorded, but there's nice relaxing music with it.

6. Isn't this penguin harrassment?
Shouldn't we all be worried about restraining orders?

10. Well that's neat
I see two unfashionably dressed people feeding fish to the penguins. Uh oh... it looks like they'll be mauled by penguins. Oh the horror!

12. Hey, these penguins are scammers!
I just noticed a disclaimer at the bottom that says I'm watching video that's prerecorded. :popcorn: It's a loop, sort of like Groundhog Day.
