  Yes, well spotted! This is one of the mixed colonies. There are actually many more Gentoos, just staying behind the camera.

  Ah, the few Adelies that are still there! 😃 Remarkably how that population has declined the last 10 years...

  That's an interesting comment Natureview 😄 - Have you been - are you familiar with Petermann? Sad to think of their decline though 😦
