How could you possibly find
little Pingu in there? Picture captures penguin nursery in which thousands of
huddled chicks wait for their parents to return with dinner

PUBLISHED:| UPDATED:
With their parents in the sea catching fish, thousands of junior
emperor penguins are left huddled together to await dinner.
But when their food-bearing parents return they may be presented
with one slight problem - how to find their chick amongst the mass of
youngsters.
Despite the thousands of youngsters crowded together on this
plain in South Georgia, the parents are incredibly able to locate their
youngsters by detecting their individual calls.

one out: A lone adult is surrounded by chicks, still showing their brown downy
feathers
The young birds, displaying their brown, downy feathers, crowd
together to keep warm while their parents leave en masse to fetch food.
Photographer Mike Reyfman travelled to the frozen wilderness for
the first time to witness the huge gathering.
He said: 'There must be 100,000s of birds in these nurseries but
each chick can be spotted by their mum or dad when they return with food simply
by the sound of their voice.
'Penguin babies are gathered like this to keep warm from the
extreme cold and because they cannot go out to sea yet as their feathers are
not ready.
Mr Reyfman, 52, from Chicago, added: 'We spent two days following
the flock and it was one the most incredible experiences of my life.'
He used a Nikon D4 to capture his images.
