taken this last summer at volunteer point.

King penguin foot print in snow.

Two of the c100 ruddy-headed geese that can be seen  at volunteer point at times. these are the smallest of the geese resident in the falklands and can also be found in south america but are in decline there and numbers may be as low as 1000 birds. They are a protected species in the falklands are less confiding than upland geese but are very tame at volunteer point. both sexes are the same but the male is larger, during the breeding season they will steal goslings from other pairs and i have seen a pair with 22 goslings of different ages.

Went to volunteer point on saturday(by military helicopter) it had snowed friday night so had a rare opperatunity to see penguins in snow.
