Renowned photographer and science writer Wayne Lynch has a passion
and fascination for the members of the penguin family. A
self-described 'penguin addict', he has logged more than 130,000
miles to sit among hundreds, sometimes even thousands of penguins
on the far-flung beaches of the Galapagos Islands, Chile,
Antarctica and New Zealand. In this new edition, Lynch includes
completely new photographs of these intriguing birds and reveals
the effects of climate change on the habitat, life cycle and future
of these resilient animals. Advances in genetic science reveals a
number of new species which Lynch adds to this new edition. This
stocky little bird survives a rocky adolescence and adulthood, to
experience territorial squabbles, 'marriages', attacks by sea
mammals and sometimes months without food as it incubates its eggs
through the unrelenting winter. With lively, humorous writing and
unforgettable photographs, Penguins! explores the daily lives of
this feisty seabird survivor.
