On the back side of De Laca island we were amazed to see hundreds of cormorants having a party! |

And of course there were cormorants on Cormorant island too. |

We also saw a strange orange creature pointing a metal box at the cormorants... |

On the way back from Cormorant Island we swung past Dead Seal rocks to find a good amount of penguins hanging out with an elephant seal. |

And then just behind the station on Bonaparte point we saw a handful of gentoos running around. |

Poor things. It's so hard to take them seriously. |

What a wonderful day! The skies were blue, the sun was shining, and all manner of living things were out to enjoy it.
Birds were flying right down to the boat and hovering overhead as we sped along the water. |

Days like this one remind me why I'm here.
