The penguin was spotted in Birdlings Flat by Harry Singh, who posted video of his discovery on Facebook on Wednesday. This is just the third time an Adelie penguin has been spotted in the country. The only other time a live penguin turned up in New Zealand was 28 years ago, in January 1993, according to the Department of Conservation. Videos that Singh posted of Pingu show the penguin scampering around the beach and running from the tide. This beautiful Adelie penguin came all the way from Antarctica ,he has been rescued by the penguin rescue team .
