Penguins
Penguins are flightless birds with
Flippers designed for swimming
They mostly spend time at sea
On land they're always slipping
Their black and white coats serves as
Camouflage from above and under
Fish is their most important food source
All hunting's done in the water
Penguins in Antarctica have no land based predators
Once a year they moult and replace all of their feathers
They're stuck on land, and can't eat, for a few weeks
King penguins have four layers
Of brightly coloured feathers
The emperor can be as
Tall as 1.2 metres
They produce special oils
That they will spread all over
Which keeps them waterproof and
Allows them to swim quicker
The supraorbital gland filters salt from their bloodstream
As they ingest a lot of sea water when eating
They excrete, brine, from their bills, making them sneeze
The males often bring rocks as gifts to attract partners
They tend to stay monogamous and care for each other
Falling in love
They'll split the, parenting duties
Taking turns, to go get food
Which they share, with their family
Then cuddle up
Flippers designed for swimming
They mostly spend time at sea
On land they're always slipping
Their black and white coats serves as
Camouflage from above and under
Fish is their most important food source
All hunting's done in the water
Penguins in Antarctica have no land based predators
Once a year they moult and replace all of their feathers
They're stuck on land, and can't eat, for a few weeks
King penguins have four layers
Of brightly coloured feathers
The emperor can be as
Tall as 1.2 metres
They produce special oils
That they will spread all over
Which keeps them waterproof and
Allows them to swim quicker
The supraorbital gland filters salt from their bloodstream
As they ingest a lot of sea water when eating
They excrete, brine, from their bills, making them sneeze
The males often bring rocks as gifts to attract partners
They tend to stay monogamous and care for each other
Falling in love
They'll split the, parenting duties
Taking turns, to go get food
Which they share, with their family
Then cuddle up
