It was the first day of the Market on the Green in Whitehall, and little Trout was just soaking up the attention.
A line of people had formed to see Trout, an African black-footed penguin, brought for exhibition by representatives of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.
“They all have their own personalities but Trout is always one who likes to come out and meet people,” said Emily Yunker, an animal programs specialist at the zoo.
People trickled in to take advantage of fresh produce, honey, arts and crafts, food-truck fare and other merchandise provided by the 18 vendors at the event.
