百年來第三次,罕見國王企鵝現身但尼丁海岸
A rare sighting at The OPERA today - a King Penguin stopped briefly on the beach before heading back out to sea. These birds have been sighted fewer than 10 times in New Zealand. King Penguins are circumpolar colonial breeders on subantarctic islands. But at sea, they can be found in a band between 40°S and 55°S. The last reported sighting in New Zealand was at Ōreti Beach in 2024. Photo credit: Jeff Yen
