The Fiordland penguin (Eudyptes pachyrhynchus), also known as the Fiordland crested penguin, is a species native to New Zealand. It is one of the smaller crested penguins known for its distinctive yellow crest.

They have a dark blue-black head, back, and flippers with a white front. The most distinctive feature is their bright yellow crest feathers, extending from above the eyes and running backwards along the head's sides.

They nest in dense temperate rainforests, often in hidden locations such as under rocks, tree roots, or thick vegetation, usually close to the shoreline.

Fiordland Penguins eat primarily fish, squid, and krill. They forage in the ocean, often travelling significant distances to find food.
