The Humboldts are almost at their nesting grounds, but they have one last hurdle to face - a colony of Peruvian booby birds lies between the penguins and their nest-site. Out at sea, the two species are close competitors. But here, the boobies have the best weaponry. The penguins face an army of spears. A jab to the eye would spell disaster and there are thousands of birds to get through. The Humboldts' only defence is their quick reactions. With escape in sight, one penguin dares to retaliate. But he doesn't hang around for long. Their trials finally over, the nest site is within reach. It's a Humboldt nursery, dug into the desert. Here, they're safe from sea lions, nesting birds and storms, well worth the journey to get here.洪堡企鹅已经接近它们的筑窝地点，但它们还面临着最后一个难题——一群秘鲁鲣鸟挡住了前往筑巢点的去路。在海上，这两个物种势均力敌，但在这，鲣鸟有着绝佳武器。企鹅们面对的是数以万计的"长矛"，眼睛被戳到一下都会是极大的灾难。而等待它们的是成千上万的鲣鸟。洪堡企鹅只能靠它们的快速反应作为防御，眼看胜利在望，一只企鹅开始还击，但它也没有停留太久。苦难终于结束，筑窝点近在眼前。在沙漠中挖出的坑是洪堡企鹅的繁殖地，在这能免受海狮、筑巢鸟和风暴的骚扰，也不枉它们跋涉一场。
