During the period 20–21 December 1972 while travelling from Wellington, New Zealand, to Hallett Station, Antarctica, observations were made on the spatial distribution of Adelie penguin age groups. It was found that during this period one-year-old birds were found at a noticeably greater distance from an established breeding rookery than were the birds two years old or older.
