Finding Penguins

So we are now in Paracas and we took a boat trip to visit the Islas Ballestas. Known for hosting lots of sea lions and sea birds including the Humboldt Penguin.

The boat trip was a couple of hours and we saw a 170m high Geoglyph too (likely 200 BC) but could be 18th C fake.

New birds including the Penguin, Black Oystercatcher and lovely Inca Terns. Lots of Peruvian Pelicans and Peruvian Boobies too.

The Sea Lions here are attracted to the fishing boats and nets and features in a recent Planet Earth episode.Baca selengkapnya
