it's a great show, it's called "Animals Close-Up, With A Wide-Angle Lens"

[@roh9347]

Our planet is freakin marvelous \m/

[@pablofresh867]

its them Madagascar penguins 😂😂

[@155chipmunkz]

Those are Chinstrap penguins.

[@williamsapong81]

Actually they aren’t any particular species at all!

[@noluthandosibeko2195]

They are African Penguins

[@philliprporter]

I truly hope they are protected.

[@tinadayao6747]

Wowww... I enjoyed watching.

[@yolandaelena2053]

Soooo nice!! :) Paul Brown, could you please tell us what time of the year was this? What period should we go to see them? Thank you!

[@michaelanthony6274]

I just went to Boulder beach a week or so ago and they were there. They’re entering spring atm. This place is absolutely beautiful

[@UNPLANNEDTRAVELLER]

awesome video thank u

[@SunnyApples]

Paul, is it ok to use parts of this footage for my own project, just few seconds of it? The project is about penguins, and I would show in a small window just 3 - 4 seconds of the footage of African penguins walking. Also, I would monetize the project.

[@40littleduck]

What time of year the penguins there, Going to Cape Town April 2017

[@shaunlingham4920]

+Tina Byworth they are here all year round. It is their home :)

[@anytraveltips2179]

Tina, there is best time. I'll copy the text from our website whentobewhere: "The breeding season is from February until August: It peaks from March to May. It's fascinating because all the penguins are at the beach feeding the small ones. The babies get feeded for about two month in the late afternoon. Therefore you have to decide between less crowds but also less penguins in the morning and more crowds but also more penguins in the afternoon. Or go late before they close (see above: Tourist crowds). In general you'll see more penguins in breeding season than at other times." However, it's crowded. Avoid weekends and be there early in the morning. Mike

this was amazing to watch! so cute

[@jare3459]

This Penguins were smart enough to get out of Arctic circle

[@philliprporter]

Out of the frying 🍳 pan and into the fire 🔥.

[@luke_carter]

Jare 345 these penguins are not penguins from the Arctic they are African and like cold (ish) waters and warm climates. If u check on my channel further down I posted a video of up close with this

[@JSmithBlog]

You misspelled "Antarctic".

[@cactusgamingyt9960]

@@JSmithBlog Yeah, Arctic Penguins were also known as Great Auks (They're called penguins in French and latin)

[@mbsesv]

They are very cute!

[@Rainbocrescendo]

I do love boulders beach I go there on holiday lots to Cape Town. It’s very fun to go up close with the penguin, once swam less than a metre from one in the beach.

[@tylerlevasseur1830]

I LOVE THESE KINDS OF PENGUINS

[@siimmae8086]

can i have one penguin pls

[@ulrichfodze355]

think I found my next travel destination :)

[@PieDente]

I live in South Africa. I've been to boulders beach.

[@xanny3110]

My great aunt lives off of boulders beach and can see the penguins from her window

[@jonmonsoon8899]

THIS is why selfie sticks are banned at Boulders! You should have been fined and had your cameras confiscated for disturbing the penguins in this manner.

[@luke_carter]

jon monsoon yes. He was right up to there face. When I filmed them on my channel the authorities were fine and I didn’t go too close

[@t-jay3589]

Relax Karen

[@vickieshoesmith6425]

Hi Paul - would you be happy for me to link to this video as part of a virtual cape town tour for a Virtual Event (that normally takes place in Cape Town)? Thank you!

[@PaulBrown65]

No problems, regards.

[@janajankova7018]

The Boulders colony is the best one in the world. Pleeease, don't feed the Americans. And the Australians. The penguins on Boulders beach are a very fragile colony and they struggle to mate with every other moron trying to poke them. They just need space. They will also not eat the dead skin off your toes. Try Singapore airport instead. OK?

[@shivamsingh6953]

These penguins are the great example of black and white combination of nation . Peoples of rsa should be live gracefully and togetherly just like them and enjoying life peacefully 🎉🎉

[@blackinton2526]

focus on India MOST racist country on earth Also Indians bring their racism to Africa

[@katiak3730]

thought penguins only lived in the cold!

[@bigfranchise]

Well, you thought wrong.

[@Travelvids]

Nice video Paul it really getting tricky to get that close to the penguins at boulders beach these days. Unless you know the secrets like we do ;-) you can check out our latest video, #thisiscapetown here kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKS9Y3SmiLembqs cheers Darren

[@mohammedthoufiq8410]

Their walk is so cute

[@meltedcrystals7]

Basically super Mario galaxy

[@wanderingheart]

I thought you're not allowed to go down to their habitat...

[@essashaik4072]

I was wearing black a dress the penguin walked up to me lol

[@jamesyoureshortfriend37]

I've been here

[@cechcastellon1501]

I dreamt about this

[@purplepizza2159]

How do i get there

[@joosepsulger6922]

lovely

[@anytraveltips2179]

Stunning! Excellent worked Paul. I embedded it on our website with 'when to go tips' for Boulders Beach: www.whentobewhere.com/travel-listing/boulders-beach I also put a link to your youtube channel in the main description. Please let me know if you don't want it embedded. I'll remove it immediately then. Thanks, Mike

[@PaulBrown65]

Hi Mike, no problems, your website looks great! I just got back from Antarctica so maybe you should add that destination too! These are the videos:- kzbin.info/aero/PLNRWU6eWNb5qJm2RGGeL7cQpusJvN5MMY

[@anytraveltips2179]

Paul, thanks!! Excellent videos. I am also a hobby filmmaker; created our teaser video (it's in my channel). However, I am not nearly as good as you :) As a matter of fact, we already have a great Antarctica place on our website. I am afraid to post the link. I realized that youtube/google bans my comments when I post links too often. :( You can search for it on our site. I already have a cool video embedded, but will replace it with one of yours this week!! We love your videos :) Just noticed: You have great videos for other destinations. Can I let you let you know, which ones we could use/embed as well?

[@PaulBrown65]

Hi Mike - no problems re using my other videos.

So cute 2020?

[@PaulBrown65]

2012, but wish I was there now 🐧

[@Supermagicbatman]

Won't penguins die from over heat?

[@thatquywithaface]

penguins can fray their feathers allowing themselves to cool down, kind of like rolling up your sleeves. also above their eyes is bare skin and can cool then off.

[@plowhz]

Western Cape is not that warm

[@saraswinerton7202]

Batman Magic not all penguins like the cold

[@janajankova7018]

Cute and cuddly, boys! Kowalsky, Boulders!
