South Africa is their steward and have been declared Special Nature Reserves under the South African Environmental Management: Protected Areas Act in 2003, which restricts activities on the islands to research and conservation management. It is still volcanically active with researchers periodically discovering new flows.

Who can resist penguins and whales? The length of each bird species account varies, depending on whether the bird is native or a “visitor” (the book’s term for migrant) or vagrant, breeding or non breeding. South Georgia is home to the King Penguin, the second largest penguin in the world.

Not to mention, its brilliantly bulbous crimson throat, bloated during breeding season must be a sight! Jean Loscalzo is a penguin buff (Can you blame her?) and would love to watch Rockhopper Penguins. He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy, their son, Desmond Shearwater, and their two indoor cats, Hunter and B.B.

Way back when I started what turned out to be my thesis research (on humans), it became important for me to learn about bird migration. I was involved in the study of human movement and navigation on land, and there was a lot of research coming out about bird navigation. A fascinating exception to this, of course, are penguins.
