Magdellena Island

Reviewing pix of penguins from Patagonia. This is Magdellena Island with rows of penguins on the top of the ledge and families of sea lions. We are allowed an hour to walk through the colony of nesting couples tending their burroughs for two months at this time of year.  The daily boat trips can easily be cancelled because of poor weather. Pick the early morning trip which is usually calmer seas.

You can see these guys bumping up to the edge of their territory on the Island of Magdellena. Just incredible to have been there in person.
