Currently, there is a blizzard occurring and all our gentoos have left to feed during such a hostile time on land. Hopefully, this condition will not last long so they can return and start making those eggs!

In the meantime, enjoy watching these little guys scurry around doing what gentoos do. You'll see pairing occurring and some visitors (snowy sheathbill (Chionis albus). Also, notice the icebergs as they glide by. It's really quite the show!

Suddenly... PENGUINS!

This last week has not been good for spotting penguins. With recent snowfall and wall to wall ice on the sea, our little friends were quite elsewhere and nowhere to be seen. However, my daily vigil was rewarded yesterday with a few scouting out the grounds and I made a small gif of this accountance.

Today, was quite different. Today, a grand reunion occurred on the snowy grounds and there were many happy greetings among the prodigals. Without further ado, here are the gentoos:

Here's to tomorrow and getting down to the business of making those eggs!
