Finalist – Monkey see, monkey do –
This image was taken while I was conducting research on the seabird species that breed on Marion Island, in the subantarctic Indian Ocean. While doing a routine count at one of our monitoring colonies, I was able to capture this moment, in which a king penguin chick was imitating its parent by trying out calls.
