Penguins

Penguins seem to hold a fascination for many people. We see them in ornaments, stuffed animals, on clothing - even in movies. I think some of it comes from their happy look and comic antics even in what is often the worst of climates. Penguins are not found in the Northern hemisphere other than in zoos. I have done this design set from photographs (other than the two line drawings) and have identified them as best I can from many internet sites. I learned a lot about penguins and was surprised at their variety! (I found 17 species all very different looking) The little guy called a Jackass Penguin got his name because his cry sounds like the braying of a donkey. I also didn't realize penguins come as small as 16". The Kings and Emperors standing at between 3 and 4 feet tall must be an impressive sight in person! Emperor penguins are the only bird that never sets foot on dry land and the male incubates the eggs on his feet during the Antarctic winter. Nature is fascinating!
