A Gentoo penguin with two chicks.
The nests are made with small pebbles and rocks. Sometimes penguins "borrow" pebbles from their neighbors.
As the penguins chicks get older they eat everything!
And they keep eating such that before they lose their baby down fur, which is replaced with the tight, water proof feathers of a mature penguin, they weigh more than Mom or Dad.

Courtney,
Looks like the penguins really like you. So much they want to eat you! I know you all are having a whale of a time. Love the pictures. Great photography! We're thinking about you. Wow what an experience for you all.
