Penguin here.

When Blue Bear and I visit our local biodome, we often see a bird called the grey-winged trumpeter. The grey-winged trumpeter is very friendly and actually walks around right next to all the visitors. According to our Biodome’s fact sheet, grey-winged trumpeters are very social and can in fact be domesticated, often acting as guards to their master or other domesticated animals. They are from the tropical forest in South America and can both fly and swim. Blue Bear and I have a special appreciation of the grey-winged trumpeter, because unlike most birds who fly away, these birdies practically hang out with us! These guys are really friendly and we will definitely be paying them a visit soon.
