The Amazing Story Of A Bird Who Became Part Of His Rescuer's...

This is one of those stories that will simply melt your heart!

Penguin is a magpie bird that was discovered flying on the ground near a library in 2013 by Noah, who is now 11.

After being nursed back to health by husband and wife Cameron and Sam and their children , Penguin was allowed to fly free, but still returned often to spend time with the family. She plays catch, walks freely around the house and sits on their heads, feet and shoulders.

The bird waits for the family to leave their home before flying out in the morning, and comes back to greet the kids from school; “It’s like a dog wagging its tail – she sits there in the tree and flaps her wings like she’s excited,” Noah’s father told ABC News.

Here's a sneak peek into the life of penguin and her human family.
