Adelie Penguins, pygoscelis adeliae, on the main Penguin Highway at Cape Adare, Ross Sea, Antarctica.
These little guys go 2-3 kilometres to go fishing so they can feed their chicks. They have this long walk to get to the edge of the fast ice. Across the bay are multiple galciers slowly grinding down the valleys of the Transantarctic Range to the sea.
