First Penguins of the Season

 Yep, this view isn't going to get boring, not in a million years.
 These penguins arrived and checked out our pump house. I could see them from my dorm room. They hung out for a few hours and then headed off to do whatever penguins do.
 The brown lumps on the island are elephant seals, when the wind blows in the right direction you can hear their strange noises.


 The little black patches on the island in front are three groups on Adelie penguins. They migrate here to breed, when the wind blows from this direction you can hear them calling to each other non-stop. No smell yet though.



A really beautiful day after snowing 12 cm in two days.
