A further newspaper report (in The Age) mentioned "Fiordland Penguin" but gave the impression that the bird was a Yellow-eyed penguin. The detail that I know of is yes, it was a Fiordland Penguin (adult female and low in weight). A local person was alleged to have found it about two weekends ago. Incidentally, the finder shouldn't have been 4-wheel-driving on the beach as it is illegal in Victoria- one of our best laws! A look at the Atlas of Victorian Birds or Hanzab shows some interesting seasonality in the yellow-crested penguins in SE Australia.
