26 Feb '06 6:36 am My youngest daughter lives on a bush-covered hillside above Wellington Harbour. Every evening the penguins return from their day`s fishing,cross the bays road, and scramble up through the bush to their nests. Some households are unwilling hosts, as the penguins make their nests under the houses and scuffle and make other noises all night. They put netting around the base so that the penguins can`t get under.
There are signs along the road, to watch out for penguins .Visiting Canadian friends phoned home"Guess what-We`ve just seen a penguin crossing ! ---a penguin crossing! ---A PENGUIN CROSSING!!" (much laughter)
