Moseley's Rockhopper Penguin

["Chris Baxter" <>]

Hi All

 

Have finally got around to uploading additional (post moult) Moseley's
Rockhopper Penguin to my flickr site www.flickr.com/photos/chrisbaxterki/ .
First ones were of bird moulting. Last pics are of a bird in splendid new
plumage. Approached this bird closely to get pics and other details on
request of penguin expert Ken Simpson. He has now confirmed species id as
that listed here. This was at Cape Du Couedic on SW tip of Kangaroo Island,
SA. Second lot of pics were taken on 9 Feb 09 and this was also the last
time the bird was seen. Hope it makes it back home to Amsterdam/St Paul
Islands in middle of Indian Ocean on about same latitude as KI

 

Cheers

 

Chris Baxter
