Bad Hair Day

Remember those cute, little Adelie chicks from ....
2 months ago ...
one month ago ... well ...
they are currently having bad hair days. They are losing their baby fluff and looking like young adults. Notice how the black feathers do not cover their chin yet (adult is on the right). They will get their adult feathering next year. Now that they have feathers they are waterproof and can enter the water to play and find food.
