Gentoo Penguins, Volunteer Point, Falkland Islands

These were just so adorable and there were plenty of chicks visible. They won the cutest bird of the day, hands down !
It really was a magical day, one that we still can't believe we have done !


















Magellanic Penguins, Volunteer Point, Falkland Islands

These were numerous and were seen most days from the ship, although when they were on the water and we were high above, they didn't resemble penguins at all. Most were sitting on eggs on the Falklands and were tucked away in burrows. The area was cordoned off to prevent any burrows collapsing in.
