Yesterday we launched our latest project: Penguin Watch. It is already proving to be one of the most popular projects we run, with over one hundred thousand classifications in the first day! The data come from 50 cameras focussed on the nesting areas of penguin colonies around the Southern Ocean. Volunteers are asked to tag adult penguins, chicks, and eggs.
Here are my favourite images uncovered by our volunteers so far: (click on an image to see what people are saying about it on Penguin Watch Talk)
1st Rule of Penguin Watch – You don’t have to count them all. But I dare you to!
Living on the edge
Penguins are always only black and white…
I think they want in!
Spot the tourists
We’re saved!
