Little Penguins.

On a recent ferry ride to Patonga, the driver (pilot? captain? skipper?) told Xave that Lion Island, just inside the entrance to Broken Bay, is the northern most habitat for little penguins in the southern hemisphere.

Fabbo.

Yesterday morning, whilst lying in my cabin, on a sparkling windless morning, I heard a strange 'call'.

I hopped, actually clambered, out of bed to investigate.

The sweetest trio of penguins, were cruising around our boat, and they were very vocal.
- apparently, they were working in teams, signalling to each other, letting each other know where they were so as to optimize fishing performance.

They spent the day fishing around Dark Gully where our boat is moored. Coming together from time to time to check on each other.

I took a photo but it didn't work - was more like a kind of 'see that speck on the water? well it's a penguin' type photo. (Not worth uploading).

Thanks for your company lps, we hope to see you again.
