Their immature plumage has a yellow head band and extends to a yellow head with fully adult plumage when they're 14 - 16 months old. The species' Māori name, hoiho - noise shouter - refers to their shrill call. Often heard when they encounter others in their colony.

Diet: small to medium sized fish such as sprat, red cod, and squid. Behaviour: the only penguin species that doesn't become tame. Also the least social and a solitary breeder.
