South Georgia – Penguin Sunset – We Are The Aliens

This is one of the most incredible moments of my life. We landed onto this beach at sunset and were greeted by thousands of king penguins. Immediately I was over taken by this feeling that we are aliens. I can’t describe this in words because I will never look at the stars the same way again after this night. The most logical explanation I have for the impression I was left with is that penguins stand upright, like us humans. That’s the only thing I can think of that we share with penguins and no other land trotting creature.
