It looks like this box may be picked again by this breeding pair of yellow-eyed penguins. They successfully raised a couple of chicks last year in this sponsored box. Eggs are not far away now and soon it will be time for the females to make up their minds which box it is going to be for the season: females get to choose because they lay the eggs and eggs can't be moved once laid! So lady's choice it is! The boys often build more than one nest for her to pick - these two have a second house they are eyeing up - we will see soon enough which one she approves of more!!
