The Southern Rockhopper Penguin (Eudyptes (chrysocome) chrysocome) is a small penguin that breeds along the southern coasts of Chile and Argentina as well as offshore islands, including major colonies on the Falkland Islands. Until recently, the Rockhopper Penguins were considered one species (and still are by many authors), but have been split into this species and the Eastern and Northern Rockhoppers, with Eastern breeding in the south Pacific and Northern on Tristan De Cunha and Gough islands in the south Atlantic. The Southern Rockhopper is listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN, while the Northern is listed as Endangered.

It's home to a large number of Gentoo penguins, a hotspot for Minke and Humpback whales which can often be heard from the shore, and often making hikes that offer great views of the surrounding Errera Channel.

Booth Island is in the northeastern of the Wilhelm Archipelago and was discovered and named by German expedition 1873.

The beauty of remote South Georgia is difficult to describe. From majestic landscapes to the abundant wildlife with hundreds of thousands nesting penguins , the island is a paradise for a naturalist and a real joy for a plain visitor. Faraway and difficult to access, in the middle of very rough seas, it's worth every effort to get there.

Part of the King Penguin, Aptenodytes patagonicus, at Volunteer Point on East Falkland, Falkland Islands. As this species has an irregular breeding cycle, some of the adults are guarding eggs, while some young are still fully in their fluffy baby feathers, and others are moulting into their adult plumage.
