Penguins are birds, but unlike most birds, they are unable to fly. They are one of about 40 species of flightless birds. Most penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere. No penguins live in the North
Pole. They are very social and live in colonies. They are great swimmers who use their wings like paddles to swim through the water. They can stay underwater for 10-15 minutes before surfacing to
breathe. They cannot breathe underwater. Their feet are small, so they don't lose too much heat as they stand on the ice. They help each other stay warm by gathering together and shuffling around. Their primary diet consists of fish and krill. They will swallow pebbles as well as their food. It is believed that the stones may aid in grinding up and digesting
their food. They can drink seawater because they have a special gland that
filters salt from the bloodstream. Their colors help them to be camouflaged while swimming. From above, their black backs blend into the dark ocean, and from below, their white bellies match the bright surface. This helps them
avoid predators. Once a year, penguins molt. Most birds will lose a few feathers at a time throughout the year, but penguins lose all their feathers at
once. They cannot swim without feathers, so they eat a lot

cried she with her dying voice
