We do hope that people don't get it in their mind to go and take photos like
this as it requires professional equipment to shoot in low light like this.
Most attempts by visitors we observe results in accidental flashes going
off. Flash photography, accidental or not, can interfere with little penguin
breeding as some penguins may no longer feel safe when exposed to bright
lights such as a camera (or phone!) flash.
We are The Friends of Lillico Penguins CARes Group (CARes is short for Conservation Area Reserve). The Lillico Beach Conservation Area is located 6 km west of Devonport alongside the Bass Highway. We assist the Parks and Wildlife Service to supervise the visitors to the Penguin viewing platform from September to May each year - the 'Penguin Season'.

FW: FOLP in the local rag!
Always nice to get some recognition for what we do.
