Chitchat Hey Scholar Generals! A Penguin is your new competition!

Standing in line for a special ceremony, uniformed soldiers of His Majesty the King of Norway's Guard are carefully inspected - by a penguin.

Sir Nils Olav, a resident king penguin at Edinburgh Zoo, was honoured with the title of brigadier on Monday (Aug 22) during a parade in the Scottish park. The bird is the mascot of His Majesty the King of Norway's Guard and was made a knight in 2008.

Under cloudy skies, Sir Nils Olav slowly made his way down the zoo's Penguin Walk, ending his inspection with a cry and a scratch of his head. A zoo keeper then bestowed the honour on his wing.
