The picture was taken in South Georgia by Sjoerd van Berge Henegouwen, 45, a criminal defence lawyer from Maastricht in The Netherlands said: 'I kind of got the feeling that the parent penguin was worried about the chick being so late in the season with its moulting process.

照片的拍摄地点是南乔治亚岛，45岁的摄影师Sjoerd 来自荷兰马斯特里赫特市，是位刑事辩护律师。他表示：“我感觉企鹅妈妈好像是在担心自己的孩子，因为正值企鹅的换羽时节，但小企鹅明显发育比较迟缓。”

'The moulting process happens to the adult birds as well as the young penguins. For the adults this starts towards the end of the subantarctic summer, for the youngsters however this process starts earlier.

“成年鸟类和小企鹅都会经历换羽过程。成年企鹅会在亚南极的夏天结束之际开始换羽，而年轻企鹅则会开始得更早一些。”

'The penguin in the photo is halfway done with moulting its down, but he is rather late already. Some of the younger penguins are long done with shedding of their down and turning into real adult King Penguins.'

“照片中的企鹅换羽过程进行了一半，但他已经比同伴们迟多了。一些年轻企鹅早褪掉了之前的绒毛成长成真正的成年帝企鹅了。”
