These are photos of Tribby, a penguin at the Pittsburgh Aviary. I first started going to the aviary regularly around when Tribby was born there, and have been happy to see her every visit, and typically she comes right up to see me. I love going to the aviary a lot, and having a connection to an animal, even if it's just made up for my own sake, is really nice. :)
