Summary. We estimated reproductive effort (energy expenditures for reproduction, as opposed to maintenance) in Ad61ie penguins breeding at Palmer Station, Antarctica. Data on body composition changes and metabolic rate were obtained using isotopic methods. Ad61ie breeding behavior consists of an ini...

Both males and females lost considerable mass during the initial stages of the reproductive season, but males fasted longer and lost more mass. Mass losses of both sexes consisted of 66 % depot fat and 34 % lean tissue. Mass and body composition remained constant once birds resumed feeding.
