This is the original image I had to work with. I cropped the bottom, the top and the left and cloned out the entire boat.
Regards,

 Nest | sAner
(4742) [2005-03-11 05:54:04] | | Here you can see the nest. Because farmers removed all trees in the past and it takes a while to regrow them and because Hoiho's won't lay Eggs without 100% privacy, local parties were forced to build these 'houses'. When the trees are regrown, the houses will be removed. All penguins are 100% free, I can't stress that enough. |

 Footbridge | sAner
(4742) [2005-03-11 05:49:56] | This is just to show you that I am not telling lies. Here you can see the Hoiho penguin walking to the footbridge. The little "house" in the back is a shelter made my the third parties. Hoiho won't lay eggs when they're able to see other penguins. Therefore they walk a long distance inland. Because farmers took away all trees and shrubs in the past, there's only grass nowadays. Because the peguin can't hide enough in the grass they won't lay eggs and therefore the local parties placed these "houses". They are also replanting trees, etc. but in the meantime these 'houses' are the only solution to help the hoiho lay eggs.
Anyway, there is a big gap in the ground (caused by a little stream) and it will stop the penguin from reaching it's nest. Local parties placed a footbridge so the penguin can reach it's nest more easily. It's not a fence but a tool to help the penguins in their already hard life.
