In the shade along the base of the Pinnacle we saw some Galapagos penquins.

This penguin is endemic to the Galapagos and is the most northerly penguin in the world.

In the Galapagos it is found primarily in areas of cold water and where the birds can also find good shelter from the intense equatorial sun.

The total population consists of only a few thousand birds.
