penguins!

I got to add to my penguin checklist today – species #7, I believe, after the Antarctica/S. Georgia trip earlier this year. This one’s the Fjordland Crested Penguin – the rarest penguin species in the world, with only about 2000 left. We saw two of them in different locations, and this one put on a show for us, hopping in and out of the water and diving close to shore.
