Penguins seen during our trips to New Zealand's South Island and Stewart Island

Yellow-eyed Penguin - hoiho - Megadyptes antipodes

Little Penguin and White-flippered Penguin - Eudyptula minor
Other names: little blue penguin, blue penguin, fairy penguin, white-flippered penguin, kororā, korora
We spent time at Pohatu Penguins at Flea Bay near Akaroa which allowed us to see the white-flippered penguins up close.
Penguins are protected and monitored here, with rescued chicks of different ages being fed up so they can be released into the wild again.
