Macaroni Penguin Enjoying a Peaceful Moment at the Zoo

African penguins (*Spheniscus demersus*) are seen in a zoo setting, with rocky backgrounds and foliage. One penguin stands prominently, showing its distinctive black and white markings. The penguins appear relaxed on a flat, textured surface surrounded by stones. Some wear identification bands on their flippers. The environment suggests a habitat designed to mimic their natural coastal surroundings.
