stephie<p>The lighter penguin is an elderly female whose partner died this year. The darker one is a younger male who lost his partner two years ago. Biologists have followed them as they meet every night to comfort each other. They stand for hours together watching the lights. Photographer Tobias Baumgaertner captured this image of two widowed fairy penguins looking over the Melbourne skyline. It has won an award in Oceanographic magazine’s Ocean Photography Awards 2020.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.lol/tags/Penguins" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Penguins</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.lol/tags/Widowed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Widowed</span></a> 💖</p>
DataAngel<p>Spouse has been gone almost 3 years and I think I might finally be starting to be OK. It was just as lockdown was starting so the whole first year I was completely alone. It was months before I could see anyone, and by the time socializing was allowed everyone else had moved on. I still have 18 years of our life to pack up, but I think maybe I can do it now.<br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/grief" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grief</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/loss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>loss</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/widowed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>widowed</span></a></p>
