Coastal Bay and Tussock Grass Beach
A royal penguin rests along the shoreline of a protected subantarctic bay. The coastal environment features sandy dunes, clumps of tall tussock grass, and broad spreading plant leaves that flourish near the edge of cold ocean waters.
Royal Penguin Colony Life
Royal penguins are endemic to Macquarie Island in the Southern Ocean, where millions gather along ocean beaches. They nest in large colonies nestled among coastal dunes and thick tussock grasses. Their light face feathers distinguish them from closely related macaroni penguins, making them easy to identify in shoreline habitats.
