Hello from me and about 1,000 king penguins here in the Falkland Islands.

我和福克蘭群島的大約 1000 只國王企鵝向你問好。

轉承詞

I've made it to the Falkland Islands, thanks to Falkland Islands Tourism, who's hosting me for this trip.

感謝福克蘭群島旅遊局接待我的這次旅行，我終於來到了福克蘭群島。

情態助動詞 B1

And if you're like a lot of people I spoke to leading up to this trip, you might be wondering, "Where are the Falkland Islands?"

如果你和我在這次旅行前接觸過的很多人一樣，你可能會想：「福克蘭群島在哪裡？」

The Falkland Islands are an archipelago in the South Atlantic Ocean.

福克蘭群島是南大西洋上的一個群島。

They're about 300 miles east of the Southern Patagonian Coast.

它們位於南巴塔哥尼亞海岸以東約 300 英里處。

And this is a very exciting destination for me because it's known for incredible wildlife.

對我來說，這是一個非常令人興奮的目的地，因為這裡以令人難以置信的野生動物而聞名。

This is one of the best places in the world to see penguins.

這裡是世界上觀賞企鵝的最佳地點之一。

In fact, right behind me on this beach is a Gentoo penguin colony.

事實上，就在我身後的這片海灘上，有一個巴布亞企鵝群落。

I'm currently on Bleaker Island, and something really fun about the Falklands as a destination is one of the best ways to get around is by plane.

我目前正在布萊克島上，福克蘭群島作為一個旅遊目的地的真正樂趣在於，乘坐飛機是最佳的出行方式之一。

They have the Falkland Islands Government Air Service, or FIGUS, that does daily flights to different locations.

福克蘭群島有福克蘭群島政府航空服務公司（FIGUS），每天都有飛往不同地點的班機。

So this morning, I hopped on a plane, flew out here, got some amazing coastline and water views on the way.

今天早上，我上了飛機，飛到了這裡，一路上看到了令人驚歎的海岸線和水景。

I am the only person here on this beach with hundreds of penguins I can see around me.

我是這片海灘上唯一的人，我能看到周圍有數百隻企鵝。

Something I will never get over is how penguins nap.

我永遠也忘不了企鵝打盹的樣子。

They tuck their beaks back behind a wing, and it is the most adorable thing I've ever seen.

它們把嘴收在翅膀後面，這是我見過的最可愛的東西了。

But they also are one of the most interesting sleepers in the animal kingdom because they nap thousands of times per day, averaging just seconds per nap.

但它們也是動物王國中最有趣的睡眠者之一，因為它們每天要打上千次盹，平均每次只睡幾秒鐘。

So these penguins are actually falling asleep for a few seconds, then waking up.

所以這些企鵝實際上是睡著了幾秒鐘，然後又醒過來。

And studies suggest this adds up to a solid 10 plus hours per day of sleep.

研究表明，這樣每天就能睡上 10 多個小時。

And it's been an adaptation to survive in a constantly disruptive environment.

這也是為了適應不斷變化的環境。

This morning I'm back out exploring, but I've come to a different part of the island with a Rockhopper penguin colony.

今天上午，我又出去探險了，不過我來到了島上的另一個地方，那裡有一個長冠企鵝群落。

And oh my gosh, I thought the gentoos were cute when they were sleeping.

我的天哪，我覺得巴布亞企鵝睡得很可愛呢。

The rockhoppers with their eyebrows are so adorable.

長著眉毛的長冠企鵝太可愛了。

And someone told me that there's one random macaroni penguin in this colony.

有人告訴我，這個企鵝群裡有一隻通心粉企鵝。

So for the past 20 minutes, I've been walking around, keeping my eye out for a penguin that doesn't look like the rest.

在過去的 20 分鐘裡，我一直在四處走動，留心尋找一隻和其他企鵝長得不一樣的企鵝。

And I thought, maybe I'm not gonna see him.

我想，也許我再也見不到他了。

And then lo and behold, he's standing in a pile of his own molten feathers.

然後看哪，他站在自己熔化的羽毛堆裡。

I'm at these cliffs and there are these giant waves breaking against them.

我站在懸崖邊，巨浪拍打著懸崖。

And with the penguins on the cliffs, it's so photogenic.

This afternoon, I'm out at Volunteer Point, which is probably the thing I was most excited for on this trip because there's a large colony of king penguins here.

今天下午，我來到了 Volunteer Point，這可能是我此行最興奮的地方，因為這裡有一大群國王企鵝。

When I got to this colony, I was speechless.

當我來到這個企鵝群落時，我震驚到無話可說。

就像我停了下來，瞪大了眼睛。

They're even prettier than I imagined and so fun to photograph.

它們比我想象的還要漂亮，拍攝起來也非常有趣。

Just looking through my viewfinder already at the images.

我已經在用取景器觀察影像了。

And they're currently in their breeding season.

It is a dream come true to be here photographing them.

在這裡為他們拍照是夢想成真。

I spent the next couple of days exploring East Falkland with guides and it was really cool to travel across the countryside and see just how vast these islands are.

接下來的幾天，我在導遊的帶領下游覽了東福克蘭群島，穿越鄉間小路，看到這些島嶼是如此廣袤，真是酷斃了。

There are over 700 islands in the Falklands, but a total population of less than 4,000 people.

福克蘭群島有 700 多個島嶼，但總人口不到 4000 人。

So you can really feel the sense of community here as well.

所以你在這裡也能真正感受到社區的氛圍。

This is a box that a local farm fills with fresh baked goods and it's an honor system to pay what you think is fair for what you take.

這是一個當地農場填滿新鮮烘焙食品的盒子，採用誠實制度，你拿了什麼就付你認為公平的價格。

Most of these drives were pretty long with a lot of off-roading.

其中大部分車程都很長，有很多越野路段。

所以，能吃點零食真是太好了。

The Falkland Islands have the largest population of Gentoo penguins in the world, along with four other species, Rockhopper, King, Magellanic, and Macaroni.

福克蘭群島擁有世界上最大的巴布亞企鵝群和其他四個物種，長冠企鵝、國王企鵝、麥哲倫環企鵝和冠企鵝。

Around a million penguins nest here every summer and they are one of my favorite animals to watch.

每年夏天，大約有一百萬只企鵝在這裡築巢，它們是我最喜歡觀看的動物之一。

I swear I spent half of this trip walking backward to keep my distance from them.

我發誓，為了和他們保持距離，我花了一半的時間往回走。

Something I learned about penguins on this trip is their tuxedo coloring is counter shading to camouflage them while swimming.

在這次旅行中，我瞭解到關於企鵝的一些知識，它們的燕尾服顏色是在游泳時用來偽裝的。

When seen from above, the black on their backs blends with the depths of the ocean and when seen from below, their white bellies blend with the surface and sky.

從上往下看，它們背上的黑色與海洋深處融為一體；從下往上看，它們腹部的白色與海面和天空融為一體。

One of my favorite places I visited in East Falkland was the Mural Farm with Kidney Cove Tours.

在東福克蘭，我最喜歡去的地方之一是 Kidney Cove Tours 的壁畫農場。

This is one of the most incredible pieces of private land I have ever seen.

這是我見過最驚人的私人土地之一。

It's 10,000 acres and it has an amazing coastline and four species of penguins choose to live here.

它佔地 1 萬英畝，擁有令人驚歎的海岸線，有四種企鵝選擇在這裡生活。

I mean, can you imagine this being the wildlife in your own backyard?

我的意思是，你能想象這就是你家後院的野生動物嗎？

I asked the owner if he ever gets offers to buy the land and he said yes and they are turned down very quickly.

我問地主是否有人想買這塊地，他說有人想買，但很快就被拒絕了。

If you come to the Falkland Islands, your main launching pad is going to be the town of Stanley.

如果你來到福克蘭群島，斯坦利鎮將是你的主要出發地。

The buildings have colorful roofs and there's some shops and restaurants.

建築物的屋頂五顏六色，還有一些商店和餐廳。

They have a museum showcasing the history of the Falkland Islands.

這裡有一座博物館，展示了福克蘭群島的歷史。

A lot of the hotels and restaurants have water views.

很多酒店和餐廳都能看到水景。

I've been staying at the Malvina Hotel this week and my room has this beautiful view of the water.

這周我住在馬爾維納酒店，我的房間可以看到美麗的水景。

And the nice thing about Stanley is while it's a great spot to use as a launching pad to take flights out to other islands or to do these off-roading trips like I've been doing this week, there are also a lot of great places to visit nearby.

斯坦利的好處在於，雖然它是一個很好的出發點，可以搭乘飛機前往其他島嶼，或者像我這週一樣進行越野旅行，但附近也有很多值得一去的好地方。

Right now, I'm out in the Gypsy Cove and York Bay area.

現在，我在吉普賽灣和約克灣地區。

This is about 15 minutes outside of Stanley.

這裡距離斯坦利大約 15 分鐘車程。

It's this beautiful spot with a hiking trail along the coastline and beautiful beaches and some wildlife.

這是一個美麗的地方，有一條沿著海岸線的遠足小徑、美麗的海灘和一些野生動物。

So it's easy to just run out here for a couple hours and hike around and explore the coastline.

你可以輕鬆地在這裡跑上幾個小時，徒步旅行並探索海岸線。

And today is my last day here in the Falklands.

今天是我在福克蘭群島的最後一天。

I knew I was going to see wildlife here, but I really didn't expect to see so many penguins.

我知道我會在這裡看到野生動物，但我真的沒想到會看到這麼多企鵝。

Like if you are into penguins, this is a penguin paradise, especially if you're interested in seeing this kind of wildlife, but you don't want to do something like an Antarctic cruise.

比如，如果你喜歡企鵝，這裡就是企鵝的天堂，尤其是如果你有興趣觀賞這類野生動物，但又不想參加南極巡遊之類的活動。

Like when I posted all of my Antarctica content last year, I got a lot of messages from people that were like,

像是我去年發佈的所有南極洲內容，我收到了很多人的留言，他們說：

"I would love to go see the penguins, but I can't do ships. I get seasick."

「我很想去看企鵝，但我不能坐船。我會暈船。」

So this is a destination that you can fly to and drive out to see the penguins.

那麼這是一個你可以乘飛機前往，然後開車去看企鵝的目的地。

Easily one of the most unique places I've ever visited and still so untouched.

這是我到過的最獨特的地方之一，至今仍未被開發。

There is just so much wide open space here.

這是一個非常非常特別的地方。

Thanks for watching and coming along with me on this one.

I hope you've enjoyed seeing a bit of the Falklands with me and I'll see you in the next one.

希望你們喜歡和我一起領略福克蘭群島的風光，我們下期再見。
