Penguins - Spy in the Huddle
« on: February 25, 2013, 10:01:06 pm »
Hi Folks,
 
 Just finished watching BBC 1 - Penguins - Spy in the Huddle. Did anybody else see this at all?
 
I thought it was brilliant to see how the different types/breed of Penguin each made their journey's etc.

Oh I was there, I was the third rockhopper penguin on the right with the gammy leg! {-)
Whilst I was in the Falklands we had a lot of BBC film crews turn up, but they wouldn't say what they were up to, now I know!
Fantastic little birds with a brilliant personality if you ever get the chance to see penguins in the wild I would say go for it there is nothing more entertaining or life changing than seeing a colony of penguins with their chicks. :-))


P.S Ian, I got your pm, I have just managed to get back on the forum tonight after my phone signal died!
Thanks once again for the suggestion.

I have been watching this series with interest, especially the radio controlled Penguin-Cams.
Loved the twin screwed underwater Penguin-Cam used to film the chicks first time in the sea.

I too have seen Penguins - not quite up close, but close enough.
 
 Yes the underwater Penguin Cam, infact all the Cam's were quite clever!

we got to see it here in Canada too surprise,surprise, most of what is worth watching here comes the BBC or NHK in Japan. It was a brilliant show by our standards. Mick B.
