The weather in Patagonia was not cooperating and our excursions kept getting canceled. Wee decided to return to Punta Arenas to try and make a penguin watching expedition. After some major disappointments, it felt likee a miracle when it didn’t get canceled. Here is a Magellanic Penguin, shot with my old beat up point-and-shoot on it’s last gasp of life.
