"Roger's Head, 600 feet high rock pinnacle, rises above section of island's biggest penguin rookery. Experts estimate that over 10,000 penguins live in this rookery. White specks on stony spurs to Roger's Head are some of this number. David Eastman, official cameraman, climbed down dangerous rocky cliffs to take this picture."--Label on verso.
