Last November when we were on our Sth Island trip we had the pleasure of meeting these gorgeous penguins.
If you ever get the chance to do this, it is well worth seeing.
Cheers Lynette

I spy with my little eye, something beginning with E!

Our monitoring team were more than excited to find two breeding pairs sitting on eggs today ☺

We've been busy analysing our reader data that records when the penguins come and go from the colony, and we have agreed that the first egg was laid on the 30th of April! This is the second breeding season in a row we have had first eggs laid in April, so we look forward to hopefully another bumper season.

Congratulations to Rosie Fakatava who guessed the correct lay date, we'll get in touch to get your penguin adoption to you! We've decided that the first layer can be the adopted penguin. The penguin ( #04164) is a 4 year old female and this is her third year breeding, interestingly she bred early last year as well.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our pick-the-date competition.

Check out our adopt a penguin programme if you'd like to adopt your own penguin. https://book.penguins.co.nz/giftvoucher/selection
