Before they molt, baby king penguins can look bigger than the adults, with all those furry feathers. I photographed these four babies following the leader late one afternoon on Saunders Island. On this one beach, called The Neck, I was able to photograph all five of the penguin species that regularly inhabit the Falklands.

Aren’t they darling! I love the highlights of their baby (fat) forms, coupled with their long shadows. Wonderful capture, Sean!
Thanks Sue.
Glowing babies. So sweet!
Now those are some cute little nuggets!
No doubt, Shardae, although not so little.
On a late spring day —- Ingmar Bergman players are led toward home —- Chiaoscuro for the young.
Wonderful shot!
Thanks Rachel.
