Since you guys love penguins so much... Print
Stuff I like
Here's a tiny snippet from some footage I took through night-vision goggles on a beach in Tasmania last year:



These are fairy penguins coming ashore in pitch darkness on the neck of Bruny Island.  Hundreds of Mom and Dad penguins spend the whole day gathering food out at sea , then after nightfall minimize their exposure to predators by storming the beach Normandy-style to bring home the day's haul for the young waiting in their nests.

This is absolutely fantastic to watch.

So here's the biggest snip I can give you without totally crushing my bandwidth.
