Photo: Eudyptula Minor Blue Penguin

The cutest of all the penguins is the Blue Penguin or Eudyptula Minor which can be found around inshore waters in temperate seas, but this one resides at the Auckland Zoo in New Zealand.

A tiny little Blue Penguin, the smallest of the penguin species throughout the world, wanders around his habitat at the Auckland Zoo on the North Island of New Zealand. The Blue Penguin is also referred to as Eudyptula minor as this is the proper scientific name given to this bird which will be approximately one kilogram when fully grown. Shades of blue highlight their back and flippers, while white adorns their underside protecting them from any predators in the water.
