Moseley’s rockhopper penguin; Northern Rockhopper penguin

Moseley’s rockhopper penguins find all their food at sea, coming to land only to moult and reproduce. The male builds a nest in the shelter of a tussock (a clump of grass on the Antarctic islands) or a rocky ledge, from pebbles, leaves and twigs.

Like all penguins, they are well adapted for swimming. The rockhopper penguin is an agile and very fast swimmer.
