In the Otago region of the South Island of New Zealand, we stayed at the University of Otago for a little over a week. On the 12th of January, we were lucky enough to go on a seven hour wildlife tour where we traveled throughout the Otago Peninsula. With my camera in hand throughout the day, I was able to take some once in a lifetime photos. Featured here is the almost extinct yellowed-eyed penguin at the OPERa, a sea lion on the beach at Harrington Point, and a seagull at the Royal Albatross Centre. (Submitted on January 13, 2024)
