I’ve always believed that there’s someone out there for everyone.
But what happens when you lose your ‘the one’?
Tobias Baumgaertner, also known as Tobias Visuals, took to his Instagram account to showcase two penguins who found love in each other after they had lost their respective partners.
He wrote, “During times like this, the truly lucky ones are those that can be with the person/people they love most. I captured this moment about a year ago. These two Fairy penguins poised upon a rock overlooking the Melbourne skyline were standing there for hours, flipper in flipper, watching the sparkling lights of the skyline and ocean.”
A volunteer then approached him to explain how the two came to be.
“The white one is an elderly lady who lost her partner and apparently so did the younger male on the left. Since then they meet regularly to comfort each other and stand together for hours watching the dancing lights of the nearby city. Between not being able or allowed to use any lights and the tiny penguins continuously moving, rubbing their flippers on each other’s back and cleaning one another, it was really hard to get a shot but I got lucky during one beautiful moment.” he added.
“They way that these two lovebirds were caring for one another stood out from the entire colony. While all the other penguins were sleeping or running around, those two seemed to just stand there and enjoy every second they had together, holding each other in their flippers and talking about penguin stuff. Pain has brought them together. I guess sometimes you find love when you least expect it. It’s a privilege to truly love someone, paradisiacal when they love you back,” he ended in a second part.
These two adorable penguins and their love for each other can truly help many realise that love can be found again.
I genuinely hope these two don’t lose each other.
