An Emperor Penguin was first spotted June 19 on the beach in New Zealand, 2,000 miles from it's usual Antarctic habitat.
It was the first Emperor in 44 years to be found ashore in New Zealand, so it caused quite a stir. But in a situation like this, people jump to faulty conclusions.
I visited an Emperor Penguin colony in Antarctica, and studied Adelie Penguins in Antarctica for three breeding seasons--so I'll provide "between the lines" commentary on the Emperor story.
