Yesterday I got to enjoy something special. RSV Nuyina passed near the McDonald Islands. I spent time on deck in the wind, spray & swell of the Southern Ocean, watching hundreds (thousands?) of seabirds hunting for food and travelling around the islands. #volcano #subantarctic #MarineScience #eDNA

Stunning views of Big Ben from the deck of RSV Nuyina at Heard Island. Big Ben is an active volcano and Australia’s highest peak. It’s usually swathed in cloud, but not yesterday! #subantarctic #MarineScience #eDNA

ICYMI: Arrival of highly pathogenic avian influenza at South Georgia in 2023 triggered dramatic declines in female southern elephant seals during the 2024 breeding season. #subantarctic #HPAIV #birdflu @ccgbam.bsky.social @bas.ac.uk www.nature.com/articles/s42...

This new perspective challenges the idea that these islands are biologically poor, positioning them as key elements for understanding global biodiversity patterns.
Urgent conservation is needed due to climate change and invasive species.

📍 🇦🇺 Macquarie Island, Sub-Antarctic Australia
The only place on earth that was formed by crustal rocks from deep below the surface. This phenomenon happened when two tectonic plates pushed together and forced the crust above water level.

Marion, a sub-Antarctic island, turns green — but at a cost ⚰️ #climatechange #subantarctic #marionisland #GlobalWarming www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024...
Seven years since I was on Macca. Where does the time go!? Time to head south again!

Close-up of a rockhopper #penguin (Eudyptes chrysocome). Those crazy red eyes are really that colour and not some photographic effect. Bad-arse little dudes, at any rate #rockhopperpenguin #MacquarieIsland #subantarctic #wildlife #birds
