At Least Someone's Having A White Christmas

It's good to know that at least someone has had a White Christmas. However, if you wanted to enjoy the snow with these Emperor penguins you would have to travel 400 miles from civilisation.

Photographed in the freezing South Atlantic waters around the remote South Georgia Island, four days east by boat from the Falklands, the Emperor penguins have such little contact with humans that they come close enough to peck the camera.
