A group of penguins on land is called a waddle, no doubt inspired by their distinctive, side-to-side walking style — a shuffle both awkward and endearing. This waddle of gentoo penguins was photographed on Saunders Island in the Falkland Islands. To buy a waddle t-shirt, Onesie or coffee mug, visit specieslimited.com. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 350mm) ISO 400, f/4 at 1/3200th of a second.

Cute image!
Thanks. They were marching toward me as I lay on the ground.
They look like wound up toys!
And walk like it too.
I bet I can tell who won this particular race! Great image with the low camera angle.
Ha, and unconcerned with my presence. The best part about photographing penguins.
