Description

The Antarctic Treaty was signed into effect December 1, 1959 to become the only continent with no territorial sovereignty. This was to ensure that all who came, came with peaceful purposes only, so no nuclear waste or production to be established here. This agreement also promotes international scientific cooperation in Antarctica and helps preserve the fragile balance of life. Unlike King or Emperor penguins, Gentoo penguins will hatch two chicks at a time. When I was down in Antarctica in January 2020, I was able to see young Gentoo chicks snuggling under their parents belly feathers. Sometimes, they will pop their heads out to be fed or nip at each other, but mostly they hunkered deep into their parents warmth as the cold winds whipped around them. This image is of two siblings holding each others fins as they huddle under their parents stomach feathers.
