After noticing the telltale signs of guano streaks on satellite imagery, an international team of researchers set out to count the number of penguins on Antarctica’s aptly named Danger Islands. They found a previously undetected supercolony of over 1.5 million Adélie penguins—a surprising result, given how poorly these aquatic birds are doing just 100 miles away.

All the birds left the other area because they got tired of the anal probing from the sierra types. Now they have been found again...

This prompted a 2015 expedition to the island chain involving researchers from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, Oxford University, Louisiana State University, and other institutions.

You know it was definitely floated as a reason those birds were "doing so poorly" about 100 miles away.

It absolutely was. I read a book by a guy who spent a season monitoring an Adele penguin colony and he harped on this. Great to see that they found 1.5 million of them elsewhere.
