Penguin Crossing

On the road from Abel Tasman to Franz Josef & Fox glaciers we came across the sign pictured above. We laughed and laughed, because it looks so preposterous. It is not the season for penguins, so we didn't actually see any. But how funny would it be to be driving down the road and to suddenly have to stop because the road has a flock of penguins crossing.

PS - reminds me of a very corny joke: what's black and white and red all over? a penguin with a sunburn.
