March of the Penguins?

March of the Penguins


Brown Bluff, on the northern tip of the Antractic peninsula. These Adelies were looking to enter the sea, however, they knew (and we knew) that there was a leopard seal patrolling the waters looking for penguins. The Adelies would walk up and down the beach looking for a place to enter the water, when they did a whole lot would scramble into the sea at once, reducing the individual chance of getting attacked.
