Trip south - the wonderful wildlife

This week at Davis: 21 December 2012
The trip south to Davis on the Aurora Australis this year was relatively smooth, by Southern Ocean standards, with great weather for photography. For one expeditioner (nickname: Horse and a photography tragic) the trip presented an opportunity of a life time. The wildlife that followed the ship was outstanding, especially the birds. Royal, wandering, black-browed and sooty albatross along with Antarctic, cape, giant and snow petrels. This week's edition of the station news highlights some of Horse’s favourite photographs of the journey.
