About These Birds
Snares Penguin
Snares Penguin, 50–63 cm, breeds only on the Snares Islands, a tiny New Zealand sub-Antarctic archipelago. Bold yellow crest meeting above bill, pink facial skin, red-pink bill. Piscivore and krill feeder. Vulnerable; limited to a single island group making it inherently at risk from any catastrophe.
Royal Penguin
Royal Penguin, 65–76 cm, breeds exclusively on Macquarie Island in the Southern Ocean. Like Macaroni Penguin but with a white (not black) face — the most obvious distinction. Crested penguin; krill and fish feeder. Vulnerable; breeds in one of the world's largest seabird colonies (~800,000 pairs).
