Gentoo (as in penguin) does not equal gentle. They are vicious little monsters as we learned during our trip to Sparrow Cove in the Falkland Islands.
This reserve was located on the older couple's sheep farm and they were nice enough to take a couple groups of twelve (by Land Rovers) from the dock at Sparrow Cove across the farm to Kidney Cove where the penguins are. There were no roads, hence the need for the 4x4s.
Overall, the penguin visit was one of the highlights of the trip so far -- and we will get to see some more in Argentina.
