nthrockmorton has kindly found some super videos of Gentoos. He's spotted that reflection at #Egg_Rock. 'You can see it in a video we like to watch on ARKive.org http://www.arkive.org/gentoo-penguin/pygoscelis-papua/video-00.htm [It's at 1:00 in the video].
You can just see it in the top left of the show.
I had a problem linking straight in then try this: http://www.arkive.org/gentoo-penguin/pygoscelis-papua/
and select the 'video'option (next to the photos about half way down), the first video (1/8) on the left is the one marked above. The other pictures and videos are very fine too. Number 2 video includes some highly amusing scenes of penguins hauling up a steep snow slope, some very naughty pebble theft, and how penguins get back down a very steep snow slope.
@gardenmaeve...fine picture of mutual bowing during courtship is here: http://www.arkive.org/gentoo-penguin/pygoscelis-papua/image-G34155.html and exceptionally fine ring of guano: http://www.arkive.org/gentoo-penguin/pygoscelis-papua/image-G34459.html
@gardenmaeve...#tailfeather used as nest lining - visible especially at 1:23 of video 2/8.
@coldcounter...view on Petermann Island (look at the distance - TwinPillar Mountain is there): http://www.arkive.org/gentoo-penguin/pygoscelis-papua/image-G33932.html
Thank you @nthrockmorton (Nick, Annika and Pierce). Wonderful 😄
