Wildlife

Round about 17:30 last night, the sun became low and warm and the mountains hove out of the low cloud and the Kelp in the cove became a rusty summer gold.  I decided it was a great evening to take the camera out on to the beach just outside Larsen House to get some shots of the local residents.  There was a small gang of King Penguins preening among a harem of Elephant Seals and pups and the odd Fur Seal too, which is standard for the area surrounding the station.  There are also lots of birds, including the Skua which you can see in the photos who came to torment the Weiners.  See below some of the results.  I hope to tell you guys a bit more about these critters soon.

.......Today was more Extended passages on the Jet Boats, so stay tuned for the blog asap.
