About These Birds

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).

Yellow-eyed Penguin

Yellow-eyed Penguin, 56–78 cm, is one of the world's rarest penguins, endemic to southeastern New Zealand and sub-Antarctic islands. Distinctive yellow iris and yellow band behind the eye. Piscivore; dives to 120 m for blue cod and opalfish. Endangered; threatened by habitat loss, introduced predators, and fisheries bycatch.
