Rockstar Rockhoppers at the Shedd Aquarium

Since the shelter-in-place for most of the country, Shedd Aquarium in Chicago was one among many places closed.

Closed, but the aquarium still has visitors. Millions of them, online. Shedd Aquarium decided to feature a few of their residents wandering in and around the aquarium and exhibits.

The most popular residents there are 3 Rockhopper penguins named Wellington, Edward and Annie. Edward is Wellington's son from one of his offspring. Annie and Edward are a mated pair.

To see videos of them at the aquarium is an adorable sight of cuteness. They've brought joy and comfort to so many of us that have been cooped us during quarantine. I follow Shedd Aquarium on Twitter and Facebook. They also can be found on Instagram as well.

Here's video of their most recent field trip (make sure you have the volume on):
