Adélie penguins in Antarctica
Penguins are pretty amazing. From their social personalities to their impressive talent for swimming and diving, they're a bird worth celebrating. It's never too late to learn about these precious animals and appreciate their vast abilities and beauty. Adélie penguins migrate an average of 12,500 kilometres annually, as they follow the sun from their breeding colonies to winter foraging grounds and back again. These penguins are easy to recognise by the white ring around their eyes. Oh, and if you think you're chilly during the winter season, these birds thrive in temperatures as low as -29 degrees Celsius.
