Happy Monday! Here’s a portrait of an Adélie penguin taken by an Adélie penguin 🤯 Video loggers taped to a penguin’s back help us study foraging behaviors. They also provide a wealth of fun #picturesbypenguins

Only 1 week left to apply!

"Those Krill really tie the ocean together, do they not?" Today we celebrate the first #WorldKrillDay recognising this vital and mighty little creature. Krill remind us of our deep connection with Antarctica as we consider future paths for life on our planet. #Antarctica 🇦🇶

The water was so green last year!

In honor of #worldkrillday yesterday, some floofy krill buckets #penguinsforsanity

We're biking to support bird conservation this week! Support our long-term work here: pointblue.securesweet.com//teampage.asp?… #teamOrnicycles #penguinsforsanity

Adélie penguin performing a characteristically athletic exit out of the water. Do you think this one stuck the landing? I'm biking to help raise money to support birds and long-term research this week-end. Join in the fun and donate! pointblue.securesweet.com/PenguPeddler#.… #penguinsforsanity

The U.S. Antarctic research program is in trouble, as canceled field seasons imperil data sets and demoralize researchers. #LongReads scim.ag/46b

Adélie penguin populations need breeding habitat to thrive in the Antarctic Ross Sea, but a study points out an underappreciated bottleneck for adult survival of the charismatic birds: sufficient sea ice upon which to safely rest during an annual molt. ow.ly/Srkn50Q6Z3K

Really excited to see this pub come out. Adélie penguins rely on sea ice for molting. It's been concerningly low at this critical time of year in the Ross Sea lately. Read more here: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Thin ice in the Ross Sea is exposing a major problem for Adélie penguins. 🐧 Declining sea ice in critical molting habitats endangers entire colonies, @PointBlueConSci scientists report. bit.ly/49pOIMC 📷: Jack Green, NSF, Creative Commons CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 #NSFfunded

It's been a very worrying start to the season for Guillemots on the Isle of May, with large swathes of the cliffs remaining hauntingly empty... #seabird #island #fieldwork #Scotland

Grim news for seabirds 💔

More penguin molt research!

Beautiful infographic! #SciArt #SciComm
