A lone penguin of the only species that reaches the equator: the Galapagos penguin. (All other penguin species are found in the Southern Hemisphere and usually pretty far south). There are only 1,000 pairs of the species in the world, all in the Galapagos, and most on the west coast of the large island of Isabela. They are closely related to the very similar Humbolt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti, see photo from November 13, 2015). They grow up to 50 cm (19 in) long, and they weigh around two and a half kilos (5.5 lb). This Penguin, from the Bartolome Island had probably been fishing in the morning and took a rest on a rock in the water.
