Life of a penguin
Penguins are odd birds that suit sea life. They are found in the cold regions of the Antarctic circle. They swim instead of flying with swimming flippers with which they can dive till thirty feet. They stay on land to sleep and rear young ones. They dive to catch the small creatures of the sea for food. They use their feet as rudders to guide. The layer of fat under their skin helps to withstand the icy water.
