I watched the French news last night. They implied that the reason for the deaths was that there had been more rain in the Adelie area of the Antarctic. Apparently chicks get waterlogged feathers/down, which do not insulate enough.
Don't know how this fits with increasing ice in the Antarctic in recent years.

Rain in sub zero conditions implies a change in the laws of Physics that is a worry look out for the loss of gravity it must be close.

"NASA Discovers Mantle Plume Almost as Hot as Yellowstone Supervolcano That's Melting Antarctica From Below
A mantle plume producing almost as much heat as Yellowstone supervolcano appears to be melting part of West Antarctica from beneath. Researchers at NASA have discovered a huge upwelling of hot rock under Marie Byrd Land, which lies between the Ross Ice Shelf and the Ross Sea, is creating vast lakes and rivers under the ice sheet. The presence of a huge mantle plume could explain why the region is so unstable today, and why it collapsed so quickly at the end of the last Ice Age, 11,000 years ago."www.newsweek.com/antarctica-melting-below-mantle-plume-almost-hot-yellowstone-supervolcano-705086?amp=1
