Annwyne Stanish walks "Hop Along," a little blue penguin, along Rothesay Bay beach, near Auckland, New Zealand. The penguin was washed up on Muriwai Beach suffering from head and leg injuries and was nursed back to health by bird rescue volunteers Sylvia Durrant and Annwyne Stanish

        Love to see stories that make you feel good. Too bad we do not get more of these.

        There are good people out there, we just hear more about the bad ones.

          There is still goodness left in the world. We need to see more of this. The media bombards us with tragedy after tragedy. This made my heart smile............

                It is nice to see an occasion where mankind is assisting nature as opposed to trying to destroy nature!

                  Nice Crop.

                  I've always thought it would be cool to have a pet penguin.

                  Fun sidekick.

                    Are you sure that's a blue penquin as opposed to a pigmy? They're more prevalent down there.

                                    This is what the Human in Humanity should stand for. It gives me hope for our species.
