Today's fun fact: Chinstraps regularly try to steal stones from each other’s nests. Chinstraps are so protective of their rocks as they will shield their young from snowmelt, which could be deadly to developing offspring if it seeps into the nest.

Football is a universal sport, so it’s no surprise that the whaling stations of South Georgia regularly got together to play matches!
