The Penguins in the Wall

@glasgowpenguins.bsky.social

We are the Glasgow Penguins. We moved into an old wall on the Kelvin Walkway in March 2023. Every now and then, we come out and if you're lucky, you'll see us!

It took us a little longer than most to complete today's Off The Beatson Track fund-raising walk, not just because of our little legs, but also because we kept on having to stop for Dad to catch up with me and Mum!

The Off The Beatson Track fund raising event is passing our wall today, and as always, we'll be out supporting everyone who's taking part! If that's you, make sure you say hi as you pass us! We're on the Kelvin Walkway just beyond the Botanic Gardens.

In our absence, the sunflower we planted just after Easter seems to have gotten a little bit out of hand!

We've been away for a very long time, but we're finally back. We've missed Glasgow a lot, especially our favourite hill to skateboard down!

Happy Easter everyone! Dad's dressed up as the Easter Bunny this year to hand out eggs to all the little ones in our colony. I love chocolate eggs, especially the mackerel-flavoured ones!

Today we went to SpongeBob's house! Okay, it's not really SpongeBob's house, but it is a house shaped like a giant pineapple. How cool is that!

I'm studying the Romans in Scotland at school, so today we dressed up as Roman soldiers and took a trip to the remains of the Antonine Wall where we met Silvanus!

Today we went to see the Kelpies - they're absolutely massive! I don't think my Little Brother was very impressed with them, though.

Today, Mum decided she needes to feel some snow under her her flippers, so she climbed Ben Vorlich. It wasn't easy, but she made it all the way to the top!

After school today, we went to Tatooine to see BB-8! Not really, but we did go to the Riverside Museum in Glasgow which has a Star Wars exhibition on at the moment. It was great!

We've got some visitors! I think they might have come in to shelter from the storm. They're more than welcome to stay as long as they want, and we'll make sure they're well looked after - we're always happy to share our mackerel with those in need.

Mum decided to take a leaf out of the Australian Christmas handbook today and do a bit of holiday surfing. Dad says she's crazy as Scotland's a lot colder than Australia right now!

Last Sunday we were carol-singing in Glasgow City Centre, and this Sunday we're at it again, but in our wall on the Kelvin Walkway!
