Cuverville Island
The first thing that we noticed after exiting the Zodiacs was the halo surrounding the sun. This phenomenon is caused by the refraction and reflection of light from the sun on water droplets or ice crystals that are suspended in the air.
The island had quite a large gentoo penguin rookery.
There were adelie penguins too.
Given this was our last stop, this penguin was waving goodbye.
