King Penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) are the second largest species of penguin and occur on the Falkland Islands and more commonly on the Subantarctic islands in the Southern Ocean. They have to come to land to breed and to moult.

King Penguins have a prolonged breeding cycle and take 14-16 months from laying to fledging. Their brown fluffy chicks are known as “Oakum Boys” because their down looks like the oakum used by sailors to caulk the hulls of wooden boats. These adult penguins are on the beach at Volunteer Point, East Falkland. They have returned to shore after fishing and bathing in the ocean.
