Rockhopper penguins in the Falkland Islands - the confused penguin!

  • 6 days ago
'Andrea was taking a few days break at a small island called Saunders Island just after Christmas where he sat and watched the rockhopper penguins changing shifts. Video shows two groups of rockhopper penguins crossing paths and engaging in a short, amicable conversation. According to Barlow, the colony of about twelve penguins on the left was returning from sea, while the joyfully skipping birds on the right were heading out to the water, probably in search of a yummy meal. However, as the two groups disperse and continue towards their respective destinations, a member of the right colony is seen hopping away with the other group. Fortunately, a buddy realized it was missing and rushed back to retrieve the confused bird.
