We noticed a nest with only one male usually settling there during the day, and occasionally there would be different males or the nest would be empty. He is very clearly well-fed; weighing around 1450g, he's one of the biggest birds we've seen at the colony!
So it's great to see this 'bachelor' in his nest finally has a mate and an egg! We expect to see his chicks in early-mid December!

There is a large colony of little penguins in the trendy suburb of St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia. These penguins do not travel outside Port Phillip Bay, making them ideal birds to study and understand how they can overcome challenges to foraging and breeding in an enclosed environment. We hope to develop better conservation plans for the impact of El Niño on these fascinating birds living in the middle of one of Australia's largest cities.
