I got a chance to go out with the communications guy to do some fix up work on the penguin camera and penguin tracker on two different island and got to see the Adelie penguin rookeries!
Adelies are very silly and smell bad.
This one was unlucky, the skuas got it.
There is a seal hanging out around the penguins, just saying hi.
These two are chinstrap penguins.
Adelies look fake to me, like some put googly eyes on them.
On the way back to station we stopped by the elephant seals.
I feel like I'm living in a National Geographic Antarctic issue, and it's awesome.

There are skuas around, looking for a penguin to make a wrong move and give them an oppertunity to snag an egg.
