Wellington's little blue penguins are back!

From First Up, 5:43 am on 13 August 2019

Wellington's sushi-loving penguins have returned - this time found waddling near a burger joint. A few weeks ago we told you about the two little blues who tried to nest underneath a sushi stand near Wellington's railway station. Well in the early hours of yesterday morning the Department of Conservation received a call from the owner of a building opposite the train station to say the penguins had been spotted again. DoC Ranger Brent Tandy told RNZ's resident penguin reporter Charlotte Cook what happened - and what they'll do if the penguins return again.
