Pair of King Penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) standing silently together in identical postures as part of their courtship ritual, Volunteer Point, East Falkland, Falkland Islands
Note how they are taking their weight on their heels with their feet tilted upwards. This is the egg- and chick-supporting posture and is an indication to each other of their ability to look after egg and chick.
