Adelie Penguins are the cutest ones who slip and slide all over the snow more than other species and have adorable black faces – they are the epitome of our “idea” of Antarctic penguins! We only got to observe them in this, our southernmost stop on the cruise. This photo really tells the story of how they tend to cluster and play follow-the-leader in an adorable fashion. I also recommend this cute 40 second video I shot of an Adelie belly sliding! (photo & video taken in December 2009)
