Hard work
Time to have a look at some data and witness how hard the penguins work to find food
More loggers out
We deploy loggers on three brave tawaki females after we find that poor breeding is linked to food shortage
Long trips, weak chicks
We get the first two devices back and realise that It's not going so well for the penguins this season
Life after rain
The rain finally clears and we get proper nest checks done; Klemens Pütz joins our team
Swamped
Another day in paradise - if you are a fish, that is. And an air breathing, flying one at that
Damp deployments
Torrential rainfall almost undermined our efforts but we still managed to deploy two logger packages
A wet start into season 2
Our first day of field work 2015 at Jackson Head turned out a bit of a slog
Quick note from Neils Beach
A post that was written just minutes before an hour long road trip to Queenstown to pick up the rest of the team.
Back in action!
The long anticipated second season premiere of the Tawaki Project is here!
