Playing Chicken with a Penguin in The Galápagos Islands

Description

We were snorkeling in the Galápagos Islands when we found some Galápagos penguins. They were swimming around chasing fish for food. This one seemed to be taking a break as he popped to the surface, but then he quickly decided to go back to work fishing, when he swam directly at me. I held my Go Pro as stead as I could and hoped he was going to swim around me. Thankfully he veered off at what seemed like the last possible second to me. What a truly exciting an unreal moment.
