Birdtober Day One: Banded Penguin

 

There are four living species of Banded Penguins, and one of them is the African Penguin. Someday I want to go to Capetown to see them, and since they are critically endangered, I hope it will be soon. I wrote a found haiku using words from the eBird description here.
