      Gorgeous.....I recently spent 2 weeks in New Zealand and the first thing I saw when I stepped off the boat was a little penguin doing back stroke next to the dock....so cute....I love this is a penguin and I really love that's its from New Zealand!!!

      Its almost like a mother with her adorable offspring that we cannot see. This unusual pose seems to pay off fine !~

      Special thanks for all your fantastic comments & praise

      DejaVu, this is the first glass penguin I have in this natural bending pose, I was so psyched to get it - and that color is so great, although pink it reminds me of trickling down water

      Leesa, how wonderful for you visiting New Zealand and seeing a real penguin doing a backstroke that's awesome. This Hokitika glass co was a great find for me with their glass animals, they do alot of different penguins & also beautiful colorful fish, have another Hokitika in great colors coming soon

      Phil you have nailed it, the pose is like an emperor penguin mom bending over her baby, that's such a lovely image and you have a terrific keen eye, thank you for that!

      Scott I'm so glad you loved this lil penguin & agree about the color, always nice to find an unusual glass color like this

      Very cute little penguin! I can't decide if she's a really plump baby penguin or a mother penguin with her chick on her feet? I think it's the head bent pose is a really nice and unusual one. I think she's a mother penguin and she's protecting her chick on her feet and that's why her head is bent like that over it.

      Lauren thank you also for your wonderful comment & I agree this bent over penguin most resembles an emperor penguin mom bent over her baby. You know I have many penguins but this pose is very special & unusual

      Huh, interesting --- Did they ever use the penguin figure as a mark I wonder? I think I have a glass mushroom here with what looks like a penguin or kiwi anima; as a mark ........

      Hey Rose I'm happy you liked this NZ glass penguin, remember we both are pink lovers :) Actually I do not recall a penguin symbol on a label but there must be...I'm always exploring new animal glass co's so if I find one I'll let you know
