King penguins go through a very complex and fascinating courtship routine. Falkland Islands, January 2008.

Hi Javier,

Brilliant absolutely brilliant! A bit of snow would have made it a touch better mind.

It kind of reminds me of that film I watched Christmas on Sky - Happy Feet.

Its a smashing picture. Techs all look great to me, but it does look like you took it at the local tennis club. Sometimes it's just not fair.

Lovely birds - never had the chance to photograph them, but their colourings always amaze. Good reminder that they aren't on snow all the time.
