The Dulcet Tones of Gentoo Penguins
February 17th, 2010 at 10:50 am (AST) by Jake RichterWe’ve had very little Internet access, but here’s a new sensory experience. I recorded about a half minute of the sounds of a Gentoo penguin colony on Cuverville Island on the Antarctic Peninsula yesterday. Press the play button (sideways triangle) on the player below to start the sounds.
Here’s a photo of the area I recorded the sound:

Thanks. I feel like I was there for a minute!
