    More and more often in winter season for the South hemisphere (from June to August) people find penguins on the beaches of San-Paula and Rio-De-Janeiro. Sometimes penguins are even in sub-equatorial waters of Brazil North-East state Baia.

The liitle penguins, who have lost their colony, the strong Falkland stream brings to the tropical Brazil waters. In such a way penguins can overcome up to 5000 km and come to Brazil beaches hungry and tired, some of them even die.
    The specialists ask people to call for qualified help at once in order to save these beautiful and funny birds. The ornithologists help beirds and then return them to Patagonia.

Really, in fact this fountain was created and founded by Isamu Noguchi in 1970. Such a fountain is situated in Osaka, Japan.     
    The most interesting fact is that the fountain is on the pillar, which is situated under the water and in addition to it is absolutely transparent.
