Penguins are birds which have 'flippers' instead of wings.
Penguins are a family of 17 to 19 species of bird that live primarily in the Southern Hemisphere. They include the tiny blur penguins of Australia and New Zealand, the majestic emperor penguins of Antarctica and the king penguins found on many sub-Antarctic islands.
These 'birds' cannot fly and 'waddle' on land, though they can slide on their bellies on snow. Penguins are Expert swimmers and divers, and some species can reach speeds of up to 15 miles per hour.
The penguins distinctive colouring --- black body with white belly --- helps camouflage the bird in the water as it searches for meals of small shrimp, fish, crabs and squid.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE !
