We speak with Dr Annett Finger, Dr Nikki Kowalczyk, and Port Phillip Baykeeper Neil Blake about the colony of Little Penguins that live on a Melbourne breakwater in Port Phillip Bay.  They talk about the circumstances that make this colony unique & about the important research conducted by Earthcare St Kilda.  We’ll also hear how a recent industrial fire in Melbourne’s western suburbs may pose serious risks to the health of Port Phillip Bay & the penguin colony.Earthcare St Kilda  http://earthcarestkilda.org.au/Photo of Annett with feathered friend.
