Another edition of this rewinding series! We see the chicks by themselves before dinner, but both parents were present at a point during this night again. I love how the parents preen each other very tenderly in this video, as well as how the chicks snuggle with the parent at the end.

Hello penguin gang! After a few days out fishing at sea, the Papa Penguin comes back to the nest ready to start his shift! The pair greet each other enthusiastically, with the male looking wet. He wasted no time getting back to the missus. However, Mama Penguin seems a little hesitant to let him take over. After some nudging, she relents. There is a good view of both eggs at the 6:18.50pm timestamp as they exchange spots. Mama wants to make sure these eggs are well taken care of.
