Children's Zoo- Little Blue Penguins. July 11, 2013. From the name I expected them to be visibly smaller than other penguins but they were about that same size as the African Penguins in the enclosure across from them.

I´m also the opinion of Chlidonias ! There is realy an obvious size-difference between these 2 species !
Antwerp Zoo kept them in the 1980-ties also side by side and the littles were realy little !
I shouldn't have said that they were about the same size but the Little Blue Penguins didn't actually appear to be all that much smaller. It may just have been because I was watching the Little Blues and not paying much attention to the Africans and also because there was a very young African in the enclosure.
