Title: Penguin Extravaganza!!!!
Post by: Glenn Bartley on November 20, 2023, 08:15:18 am

My big trip for this year was this epic and exciting expedition to, quite literally, the "end of the earth".  I only had a few days in Patagonia to scout out for a future tour I am setting up. But it was amazing to spend them in this incredible landscape and to have some great success with the Pumas!  Next I flew out to the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) and spent one week there visiting a few islands (also part of the workshop scouting).  The final phase of the trip was to jump aboard an expedition ship and travel to South Georgia and Antarctica.

I feel so lucky to get to visit such incredible places and I hope that the images I captured do them some justice.

Below are a few of my favourite images that I hope you will enjoy.

Top-notch photography! Really, you're just as successful in Antartica/Patagonia/Falklands as you are in tropical regions.
I also love non-bird photos and especially the pumas.

Well done and thanks for sharing.

The last is my favourite,.. all are great. Taking your "tropical" expertise to this different part of earth will indeed lead to many great shots.

Thanks.
