Photo: Yellow Eyed Penguin Bird Watching New Zealand

Bird watching around Dunedin, New Zealand is fascinating especially when it consists of watching the Yellow Eyed Penguin on the beaches.

A Yellow-eyed Penguin makes his way up the beach on his way back home from a day of fishing near Dunedin, New Zealand. There is a special location near Dunedin which is set up for bird watching, but the journey in is a little strenuous and it is not appropriate for everybody. If you do make it to the bird watching area to see how the Yellow Eyed Penguin lives in his natural environment, you will not be disappointed. Every day, they waddle up the beach with full stomachs for a night's rest and return to the water early in the morning.Yellow Eyed Penguin, South Island, near Dunedin, New Zealand
