I signed up for the Denver Zoo 'Penguin Encounter', part of their new Animal Adventure program. It cost $95 and consists of a 1.5 hour guided tour, that revolves primarily around the Bird World exhibit, and ends with a private meeting with a penguin.

They also make creative feeding thingies for some of the birds, especially the Kea (from New Zealand). I saw one in the wild a few years back, on my trip to New Zealand. They do this because the birds are intelligent and it stimulates their minds.
