Two rescued penguins, cared for by a zoo staff in Australia, are back in the ocean.

Zoo staff named the penguins North and South.  They found North stuck in seaweed on Christmas.  South was found on a beach near Sydney in February, looking sick.

When released, South immediately made a dash to the ocean.  North was a little reluctant to follow.  After much waddling around and several encouraging shoves, North finally made the plunge and paddled off into the sea.
