  • Serengeti of the Southern Ocean
    SOUTH GEORGIA & THE FALKLANDS SERENGETI OF THE SOUTHERN OCEAN ABOARD NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EXPLORER | 2018-2020 TM If the astonishing sight of some 100,000+ king penguins in one rookery alone were all this expedition offered; if at the end of our time among the kings—observing, listening, photographing, walking among and communing with them—our team said “Show’s over, Folks,” and everyone were to head back home—it’s likely no one would complain, according to all our expedition leaders. It’s that profound and rewarding an experience. BUT THERE’S MORE: THE GREATEST WILDLIFE SPECTACLE ON EARTH. There’s life in such profusion that it boggles your mind as it sends your spirit soaring. Dense colonies of king penguins, fur seals, elephant seals, macaroni and gentoo penguins. Slopes of stunning windward cliffs teeming with grey-headed, black-browed and wandering albatross— nearly a third of all the birds of this species nest here. Plus, there are the rare endemics: the mighty South Georgia pipit, the only songbird in the Antarctic region and South Georgia’s only passerine; and the Falkland’s Johnny rook. (Life-listers take note.) Once a killing ground for whalers, South Georgia is now a sanctuary, an extravagant celebration of wildlife and pristine wildness. We travel with some of the best wildlife photographers on Earth, and even their best photos can’t do this spectacle justice. So, we offer images on the following pages as an invitation—to see it all yourself. TM Cover photo: A pair of adult king penguins amid fuzzy chicks with their dark brown down.
