Very little known; presumably fairly sedentary, remaining throughout year in waters adjacent to the colony, but
movements at sea difficult to detect. Some dispersal northwards, e.g. from Falklands to N Argentina; may be
more pelagic in dispersal than other species, and possibly even migratory to some extent. (del
