A penguin’s feathers are stiff and packed tightly together. While this doesn’t allow for soaring in the air, it makes them excellent swimmers. This type of feather keeps the water out and makes a great streamlined surface, perfect for water sports!

So cool! I wondered how they didn’t get cold. Also its like they are flying in the water even through they cant do it in the air!
I wish i could fly
Its to hot here.???
That is such a cute picture!
flying in the water is pretty cool, what would you rather be able to do fly in the air or swim really really well?
i would rather swim then fly,just like a penguin
i went to the zo for a feld trep and we got to hold one there were so cute
wow..i only thought they could swim becase of their weight… 🙂
wow
I like the Emperor’s Penguin the best. What’s your favorite type of penguin?
