@geekmomprojects Penguins are such goofy animals
@pettter They are so delightful. I could watch them for hours on end!
-
@NatureMC @geekmomprojects
That works, thanks! -
@geekmomprojects not camera shy are they!
@Cognissart not at all! They are super curious.
-
@geekmomprojects Lovely Gentoos!!!
️ ️@aurochs yes!!! We saw Adelles and Chinstraps as well, but I found the Genroos to be the biggest hams for the camera.

@geekmomprojects Awww!!! You are soo lucky!! I have seen Maguellan, Humboldt and king penguins, but in South America, not in that ice marvel where you have been! Have you seen many seals (leopard seals?) and albatroses? and weir whales????

@geekmomprojects The babies!
@DebC right!?!?

@geekmomprojects I hope you smuggled one home.
@orci I definitely considered making the attempt!

@geekmomprojects it's really amazing to see full blown nature up close!
Did a Botswana safari back in 2004. Just amazing
@pixelpusher220 yes, the best way to see them is definitely in their natural habitat.

@geekmomprojects Please post more penguins pics ASAP
@consumablejoy I have literally hundreds of them, which could be a bit overwhelming, but here are a couple more:

@aurochs I didn't see leopard seals but we saw Weddell seals, which always appear to be smiling beautifically in their sleep:

Since people seem to like the penguins, I have to post this photo, which somebody else on my ship took. I think it belongs in National Geographic. We saw two orcas chasing a poor penguin which darted underneath our ship multiple times to try to escape. Zoom in on the penguin's face to see its expression.
