PUNTA TOMBO
Life and passion of the Penguins
Suddenly, thousands of them arise of the sea and they invade a sector of the coast Chubutense defended by Wolves and Petreles. 
It is the assault of a species in trance of surviving.
While they wait their couple's arrival, they relocate the old nests, and when the eggs arrive, male y hembras takes turns to incubate them.
The Cormoranes of the area, patiently, waits the negligence of the penguins to be given a banquet with their breedings.

At the end of August, a hormigueante gets dizzy it removes of the ocean to appropriate of Tombo, he/she reserves faunística of the Chubut. 
They are hundreds of thousands of male penguins that, responding to the call of the instinct, they return to earth to complete the rite of perpetuación of the escepecie. 
While seperan to the females, relocates its old nests -prowess that the science doesn't still figure out - and they condition them for the future family. 
Then the retinue, period comes signado for vibrant calls of love, bloody fights and moments of great sweetness. 
They go this way being formed the couples that stay along the whole season. 
The married life doesn't take in it turns moved by the arrival of the eggs. 
Usually two that male and female incubate alternately during forty days. 
Toward the first week of November they break and the pigeons enter in scene. 
Poe almost three months, their life depends on the protection and of the food that its parents bring them. 
A band of gulls, antarctic doves, foxes, foxes and hairy it watches the brood after the second of distraction that allows to snatch a pigeon, I eat before he/she made it with the eggs. 
For that reason both parents you turanan in that work and none moves of the nest until it is not replaced by their partner that returns fed and with food for the pigeons. 
Here it is when the man intervenes: to what extent does the alteration of the atmosphere that we produce investigators, photographers or tourists without wanting it, influence in the delicate matrimonial balance and does it cause qu the penguin that left the nest it doesn't return to him?. 
The father that was taking care of it will probably abandon him for limentarse him same and this way to survive for the next seasons. 
Between ends of January and rpincipios of February, the emancipation arrives. 
With their new plumage that protects them of the water, the breedings are given a dive. 
The adults, then, are devoted to restore energy in the youths' company born in the previous season. 
Meanwhile, marine wolves and giant petreles mount guard with the hope of gobbling some too confident idler. 
The terrestrial cycle of the penguins magallánicos finishes by the middle of April, when they recapture its periplus océanico toward Brazilian latitudes. 
Until the next season, the 210 hectares of the reservation are in being able to of other species: Cormoranes, Ostreros, Ducks Vapor non flyers, Chorlos and Gaviotines. 
Such presences consecrate Tombo like one of the colonies of more important marine birds of South America. 
But those marvels are not very well-known. 
Most of those who tire the 113 kilometers that separate the city of Rawson of the reservation is moved it by an excluding desire: to see the penguins. 
The regulations of the protected area allow to spy the intimacy of these creatures that, according to the aboriginal legend, they are men that, to survive the Flood, they become marine birds.
