Penguin Watch Talk

Raising their young

  • joshuajurado by joshuajurado

    To my understanding, this is the environment that adult penguins choose to raise their young. This observation of mine was made only because of the amount of penguins marked in this photo, including chicks.

    Hello again, @joshuajurado . You are correct. Every one of our cameras is set up at a "rookery"- that's a place where birds living in colonies gather to raise their chicks in summer. I'm sure you will enjoy reading the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions), and they will explain a lot about these penguins and our Penguin Watch project. The more you understand, the more you will enjoy the penguin counting! Welcome! 😃

    Here is an easy link to the FAQ:
