The David Tennant narrated nature series, Penguins: Spy In The Huddle concludes with the third and final episode airing on PBS at 8pm ET tonight.
Episode 3: Growing Up
As their chicks become increasingly independent, emperor and rockhopper parents place them in a crèche and go fishing. Humboldt chicks are left in their burrows as the adults head for the beach. As the young grow bigger and preen out baby fluff they sport punk hairdos. Emperor chicks go skating while rockhopper chicks practice jumping skills. Eventually all the chicks leave for the sea, tackling the same hazards as their parents before them, from sea lions to predatory birds, high cliffs to glaciers.
The three-part series, featuring a voice over from David, deploys 50 spycams to record many first-time images of penguin behavior
After broadcast, the episodes will be available for online streaming at pbs.org/nature.
Episode 3 of Penguins: Spy in the Huddle, A Nature Special Presentation premieres Wednesday, October 8 at 8-9pm ET on PBS (check local listings).
