| 2/5/2015 to 2/27/2015 We flew to the "End of the World" Ushuaia, Terra del Fuego, Argentina with the intent on catching our One Ocean ship, the Akademik Sergey Vavilov, to Antarctica via the Falklands and South Georgia. Our Tropical Birding guide, Andrew Spencer, was very knowledgeable and we were pleased to have him help us identify all we saw. (Click on NEXT PAGE below to go back in time.) |
| 2/8/2015 Carcass Island, Falkland Islands: On a foggy afternoon, we landed via Zodiac and walked across grasslands to a Magellanic Penguin and Gentoo Penguin mixed colony nestled in its own beach cove. While the Magellanic Penguins were certainly endearing enough (Click on NEXT PAGE below) it was great fun to watch the Gentoo Penguins "porpoise" in on the waves and witness the young chase their parents around for a meal of half-digested krill. |
