What are a couple of penguins doing in this chapter on human values? Animal pictures work best when they reflect behavior that can be directly related to human experience. Such is the case here. I found this pair of Magellanic Penguins in a rookery on the Straits of Magellan and captured a moment when they seemed to resemble a student and teacher about to embark on a swimming lesson. Both appear to behave in very human ways. The teacher stands off to the side and looks on encouragingly as the student tentatively tests the waters, leaving a circle of ripples behind. The human values involved? Trust? Confidence? Maybe even a bit of courage. Whenever we see a photograph of an animal that we like, we are probably enjoying it for whatever human values it may offer us.
