Swimming with the penguins

In Boulders Beach, near Cape Town, South Africa, you can enjoy a dip in the sea and share the water and beach with a colony of jackass penguins (Spheniscus demersus). Although they are wild and completely free, these little guys treat their human co-bathers like something of a nuisance that they just have to live with and the try to ignore. They go about their business as if they were all alone on the beach and in the water. Making for some great photos!
What an experience!
