Three species of penguins together on a rock
During our Antarctica expedition cruise we made a zodiac expedition cruise near Kinnes Cove on Joinville Island, Antarctica.
During this zodiac cruise I had the rare opportunity to make a photo of three different species of penguins on a rock, the Gentoo penguin, the Adelie Penguin and a Chinstrap Penguin where in one location, which is very exceptional to have the opportunity to see this. Our expedition leader had 15 years Antarctica Experience but never saw this. Lucky us.
