I could be wrong, but I believe these are Humboldt Penguins swimming. Taken off Punto Choros, Chile.

We were able to get rather close to the birds, but not out of the boat. The isla Choros had a large colony.

Seen at Punto Choros, Chile. Surprisingly the boat operator didn't even see the bird, as he was occupied with dolphins that were around the boat.

My first sighting of an Albatross. The boat was moving up an down with 10' swells so it was hard to get a clear shot.
