Penguins in South Africa

avatar

If you should get to South Africa, then you should definitely take a rental car in Cape Town. With it you can make trips to the surrounding area, for example to the colorful beach houses of Muizenberg, to the Cape of Good Hope or to the penguin beach.
For today come wiht me to the Penguins at Boulders Beach in Simons Town / Cape Town/South Africa. Amazing!
South of Simon's Town at Boulders Beach lives a colony of spectacled black-eyed penguins. These on land small rather clumsy black and white penguins have something 60 cm, are in the water very good swimmers and divers, usually they incubate two eggs in shallow holes and can be recognized from a distance by their sounds.

As I heard there are only two more colonies in South Africa, 28 in the whole world, so the penguins belong to the most endangered species in the country.
