And you're 100% correct about the mate, the nesting site, and the turbulent, rocky shore. As far as I could tell, they're doing a very good job of protecting what's left of these faithful birds.Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620873522996260383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-80702444349968523842012-10-21T10:36:31.333-04:002012-10-21T10:36:31.333-04:00That is lovely!That is lovely!tlcukjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18126317345680620502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707525594638269782.post-26099278936138772092012-10-21T08:22:02.906-04:002012-10-21T08:22:02.906-04:00Wonderful photo!

Penguins in, or close to, the Northern Hemisphere!<br /><br />Considering that you captured in one photo .1% of the entire population of the endangered <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galapagos_Penguin" rel="nofollow">Galapagos Penguin</a>s, to perform an equal feat regarding Americans you would have to find a way to include in one photo the entire population of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; or St. Louis, Missouri.<br /><br />His mate shouldn’t be too far away, considering that they mate for life. (Unlike me, for whom permanent mating seems like a life sentence). And he is likely standing not far from his breeding site. (“Nests are made along turbulent rocky shores within about 50m of the water. Adults remain around the breeding sites throughout the year.”)<br /><br />And look at that guy preening! I can’t even get my snout onto my shoulders. If a have a need to attend to my back I’ve got to use an non-biologicaly-endowed one of <a href="http://asianstylefashion.com/wp-content/uploads/store/products/images/3325500575293219.jpg" rel="nofollow">these</a> if I can get my hands on one.<br /><br />Did I mention how impressive it is that the coloration of the penguin matched the shadowed, rocky background? Not yet? Ha! Just did! Did I mention that I like this photo?
