Photo by @CristinaMittermeier // Rushing towards the shore in groups of 20-100 birds, Rockhopper penguins travel fast to avoid hungry sea lions, who patiently wait to ambush them in the shallow waters. Little known and truly magnificent, the Falkland Islands are a marine wildlife paradise. Shot #OnAssignment for @NatGeo with @PaulNicklen.
