Macaroni Penguin Baby at the Tennessee Aquarium

This video shows the macaroni penguin baby born at the Tennessee Aquarium on 6/18/09. The parents, "Paulie" and "Chaos" are doing a great job of caring for this cute little penguin. If you watch closely, you can see Paulie, the baby's father, reach down with open beak and feed the baby. Chaos, the chick's mother, has the yellow banded flippers. They each take turns keeping the baby warm and feeding it. The baby has slate-gray down with a white belly. There is a white spot at the end of it's beak. You also see the baby penguin's cute little flippers and feet. Keepers at the Tennessee Aquarium are also watching several pairs of gentoo penguins with eggs.
