What's all the fluff?

I'll tell you, I have been moved today by the beauty of fluff and simple love. sacrificial love. Have you seen "March of the Penguins"? well, I did today. I sat with a room of strangers and shared in the laughter and cooing over these incredible beings. They are amazingly complex, live in the extreme and love with such intense passion, I am just moved to tears.

the images are from a wonderful site called www.corbis.com

I love the elegant profile, the baby and parent views, the couple alone together, and of course the winged wonder approaching it's liquid home...it all takes my breath away.
I added one of tourists gawking at an individual
penguin. I feel jealous that I was not one of them,
as shameful as it looks...I would just love to
explore such a place and see these lovely
beings. Can anyone say, "infatuated"? I think I may be.
