Penguin nesting

I had this in the wrong album yesterday, hence the new date.

Meanwhile I have to get up at 4.30 am to quickly upload and comment as much as I can. Our loadshedding starts at 6am now. four times a day for two and a half hours each time, quite a nightmare. i still have the granddaughters here too. sorry if i cannot comment on every post ;-(

Lucky to see this wee fellow or are they quite common around here. Our 'little blues' are always out to sea during the day!

Nice capture of that little guy.

[Casablanca]

Your loadshedding moving around sounds a nightmare and with guests too. Thinking of you and cheering you on, I think you do amazingly well considering the circumstances.
Gorgeous penguin too!

[Joan Robillard]

Have no idea what loadshedding is but doesn't sound like fun. This is a wonderful close up

[bruni]

Super close up. does the male sit on the nest or feed the female.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Extremely cute.

[Joy's Focus]

Love this capture! The sand looks pale pink which brings out the pink on his head. So cute!

[Joy's Focus]

P.S. What is loadshedding? Loading shed with grapes? Wine?

[Etienne]

@joansmor @joysfocus our electricity company is bankrupt! therefor they interrupt the electricity supply to avoid excessive load on the generating plant. an absolute nightmare, atm it is 4x daily for two and a half hours each :-(
