Suits you, sir: Humboldt penguins wear copper bodysuits designed to speed their recovery from surgery at a conservation centre in Coquimbo, Chile. The birds were treated for wounds caused by entanglement in fishing nets: the copper and zinc in the bodysuits help prevent bacterial growth.

Stop - Thief !

This is a colour wildlife photo in landscape format of a Gentoo Penguin, racing away with a small rock in its beak, having just stolen it from another penguin's nest (they use small rocks, stones or pebbles as a nesting material). Booth Island, Antarctica (2024). In the foreground is a large, smooth and sloping rock, stained a medium red or brown, that rises up from the lower left corner, extends over to the right margin and rises upwards to a little less than the quarter up level. In the centre of the photo is our thieving Gentoo Penguin hurrying from left to right. The penguin is viewed obliquely with right side and back in view, filling most the height of the photo and view from a few metres away and at the same level as the bird. In fact the photo was taken from five or more metres away, but with a long lens so the photo appears to be shot much closer. In the bird's beak is a small dark and sharp rock, probably no more than a few cm across. The sides of the bird's beak are bright
