I recently returned from an incredible trip to Antarctica and I need everyone to look at my penguin photos.

Since people seem to like the penguins, I have to post this photo, which somebody else on my ship took. I think it belongs in National Geographic. We saw two orcas chasing a poor penguin which darted underneath our ship multiple times to try to escape. Zoom in on the penguin's face to see its expression.

@geekmomprojects That penguin is saying some penguin swear words.

@geekmomprojects Ohhh poor fella! But it's a cool looking Orca. great pic, btw.
Show threadGeekMomProjectsFeb 3
@gblues Someone pointed out that how you feel about the photo depends on whether you are watching a penguin documentary or an orca documentary.

Or love linux. The orca must be big tech then.

@piofthings @geekmomprojects

Do you know why polar bears don't eat penguins?

Because they can't get the wrappers off

Show threadpiofthingsFeb 3
@ukscone @geekmomprojects therefore, Orcas > Polar Bears? 😂🤪

@geekmomprojects Who won?

@geekmomprojects very important question - how do I end up in the Antarctic to take pictures of penguins?
Show threadGeekMomProjectsFeb 3
@tired_panda Good question. As far as I know, you either have to book a vacation as a tourist or become a scientist and get lucky with your research. Though I suspect that part of the reason is such a wonderful place to be is that there are so few people down there at any given time

@geekmomprojects it's really amazing to see full blown nature up close!

Did a Botswana safari back in 2004. Just amazing

Show threadGeekMomProjectsFeb 3
@pixelpusher220 yes, the best way to see them is definitely in their natural habitat.

@geekmomprojects I hope you smuggled one home.

@orci I definitely considered making the attempt!

@geekmomprojects Please post more penguins pics ASAP

@consumablejoy I have literally hundreds of them, which could be a bit overwhelming, but here are a couple more:

@geekmomprojects You could totally set up a daily penguin bot and I would absolutely follow it

DID YOU PET A PENGUIN?

(DM the truth as I think it is illegal to pet them.)
