Photos by Pete McBride pedromcbride / Spring is in the air—and a lot of penguin gaks and shrills, too. On South Georgia Island, the king penguin colony is a ruckus of sound as new penguin chicks find their way into the world. The chicks will go on to form groups called crèches, gathering for protection against severe weather, predators, and aggressive, non-related adult penguins. To learn more about my new project on natural sounds, follow pedromcbride. #penguins #southgeorgia #wildlife #nature #seeingsilence
