Gentoo & King penguins form their colonies 1.5km inland and walk to the sea. They nest in the same area every year. The King in the photos is the one with the orange neck. Adults carry the eggs on their feet and raise 2 chicks every 3 years. They are very tame and intrigued by humans ... also, very cute!

Don't miss the first video in this posting ..Karen's favorite.

We also visited the town of Stanley, many pubs and tourist shops.Read more
