THE OTAGO PENINSULA

Let us play a game of 'I spy' along the windy headlands and grey coasts of the Otago Peninsula. On any given day, this is what you might find...

A flock of sheep all bleating and baah-ing. 

Trotting along the spiny ridge by the sea.

A pod of seals, slinking on rocks.

Basking in the slight sun of the south.

A waddle of penguins, heading for home.

With yellow eyes blinking, and flippers a-flapping. 

A rookery of albatross, soaring the seas.

Long wings outstretched, as calm as could be.

And king of them all, a great humpback whale.

Who surges and dives, with a flip of his tail.
