We sit here till after dusk, and count the number of penguins that come ashore between the markers. We do this for one hour from the first sighting. Despite it being totally unseasonable we counted dozens of them! This is exactly why we are counting them as researchers want to know what is going on, and volunteers go out twice a week to check o numbers in various locations on the NW Coast.
It is pretty cool, and certainly not tempting to swim!
If you think these photos are pretty average quality,... they come out of my mobile phone and merged using an ancient version of Photoshop Elements! The phone's GPS recorded the location as well. I use a Nokia N95.
