Nest Check
Due to COVID, there will be no Nest Check for the 2021-22 season at Cape Royds. Please check back with us in Oct 2022.
Join us at Cape Royds Adelie breeding colony in Antarctica from Nov to Jan as these sturdy birds raise their chicks. Daily pictures will be posted as they lay their eggs, hatch, protect, feed and then fledge their families. Adopt a family, name the birds and follow along to see what happens.
