PENGUINS
Penguins are flightless sea birds of the Southern Hemisphere. In all, there are 18 species of penguins, found in South Australia, New Zealand, and off the coasts of Peru, Chile, and South Africa. Some species live as far north as the equatorial Galapagos Islands, but they are primarily cold-weather birds. There are seven species of Antarctic penguins: the Adelie, Gentoo, Macaroni, Chinstrap, Rockhopper, King, and Emperor. The Adelie and the Emperor are the two true Antarctic species. Penguins have a heavier skeleton than most birds, waterproof feathers, and specialized glands that extract and excrete excess salt. Their feathers, which even cover their bills and feet, combine with a thick layer of fat to insulate them. This works so effectively that the birds frequently overheat in the frigid waters. They vary, by species, from the sixteen inch, two and a half pound Little Blue penguin of Australia to the truly Antarctic sixty-six pound Emperor penguin, which stands more than three and a half feet tall. (The Emperor has actually been recorded at up to ninety pounds.) Penguins swim like other birds fly. Their wings have not disappeared, nor have they become vestigial, useless appendages. Instead, they've evolved into flippers. Penguins use highly developed muscles to flap their wings to move forward, and they guide themselves with their tail. They are the only bird to "porpoise." That is to say, they launch themselves out of the water, momentarily flying in fluid arches as they continue to swim forward at high speeds like dolphins. Penguins do this in order to breathe, but porpoising also creates air bubbles that reduce friction during swimming. Gentoo penguins are thought to be the fastest of all swimming birds, achieving speeds of thirteen to seventeen miles per hour.

    Pittsburgh Penguins
    The Pittsburgh Penguins joined the NHL as an expansion team in 1967. Their first year saw them place fifth in the western division and out of the playoffs. The team wasn't a year old before owenership issues came to the front. As they worked through the financial issues, the Penguins would get the first taste of posteason play in their third year. They finished second in their division, making the NHL playoffs and before losing to the St Louis Blues in the semi-finals. After yet another change in ownership and front office moves, the Penguins were back in the playoffs in 1971, only to be swept by the Chicago Blackhawks. The Pittsburgh Penguins went hot and cold streaks through much of the 1970s. They missed the NHL playoffs for two consecutive years in 1972-1973. They turned it around in the 1974-75 season, finishing third in the newly establised Norris division. The Pens rolled throuh the first round, sweeping the St Louis Blues and faced off against the New York Islanders. They took a quick three games to none lead, but saw the Islanders comeback all the way to tie the series, and eventually win it with a 1-0 shutout of the Pens in game seven. The next couple of seasons saw the Penguins either lose in the first round or miss the NHL playoffs all-together. The team was back in the playoffs in 1978, losing to the Boston Bruins in the quarter-finals. In 1979 the Penguins unveiled a new uniform, relegating their blue and white uniforms for a black and gold outfit, similar to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pirates.

    Macaroni Penguin
    Fifteen million penguins live in the South Atlantic (excluding sub-Antarctic and Antarctic areas). A large proportion of these are to be found in the the Falkland Islands which hold the world's largest concentration of Rockhopper Penguins and a quarter of the world population of Gentoo penguins, with three other breeding species (King, Magellanic and Macaroni). Penguins are among the most popular of birds today yet they were exploited by mankind in the Falkland Islands for at least two centuries. Millions were slaughtered for their oil from late in the 18th century. Eggs of all four species of penguin have been taken for food since men reached the Falklands. In 1871 a colony of Rockhoppers at Sparrow Cove near Stanley yielded 25,000 eggs, but none breed there today. In the present century the coastal breeding sites and a flightless, aquatic life style make penguins highly vulnerable to oil pollution, entanglement in marine debris and changes in the marine ecosystem. Falkland waters are already subject to large scale commercial fisheries. The imminent exploration for oil in Falkland waters makes research into the at sea distribution status and life style of penguins an urgent priority. King Penguin (Aptenodytes patagonicus) The King Penguin is at the edge of its global range in the Falkland Islands, and its population (400 pairs - 1995/96) is almost entirely concentrated at one site, Volunteer Point (East Falkland). They make no nest, and instead hold the single egg on their feet for the entire incubation period of about 55 days. As the complete breeding cycle takes about 14 months a pair will generally only breed twice in three years. They feed mainly on small myctophid fish, but there has been little work done to determine their diet in the Falklands. It is the only penguin in the region increasing in numbers, partly fuelled by immigration.

    The Chinstrap Penguins are the most numerous penguins in the world. It is estimated there are 12 to 13 million located on the barren islands of the sub-Antarctic Region and the Antarctic Peninsula. These penguins live and breed in large colonies. They often live on large icebergs on the open ocean. They dive off to catch fish and krill. They are the boldest penguin and are most likely to fight other penguins.
    They got their name from the thin curved line of black feathers running under the chin. They stand about 28 inches (72 cm) tall and weigh about 9 to 14 lbs. (3.5 to 5 kg). The weight of the adults vary during the year. They are the heaviest during the molting season and the lightest during the brooding period. They are sometime called "Stone cracker Penguins" because of their high pitched call.
    Chinstrap penguins make a round nest out of stones and pebbles. The female lays two eggs and the eggs are kept warm by both male and female. They do this by taking turns for 5 to 10 days, while the other mate is feeding. The eggs hatch after about 33 to 15 days. The chicks stay in the nest until they are 20 to 30 days old. At this time they have feathers to keep them warm. They join the crèches, which are groups of young penguins huddling together for warmth and protection.

    Penguins Are Kewl! - Home Page OK, why am I starting a new web site about penguins [= , noun, singular; , plural; ], you might ask? The penguin is one of my favorite animals, along with the walrus and the hedgehog , and has been a collecting interest for about 20 years already. Walrus and hedgehog web pages may also eventually appear, but most of that collection is in the Canary Islands , Spain, and I have no idea when I shall be able to return there to take the pics and get the corresponding data. This material is not intended as a review of the natural history and sex life of penguins, which may probably be found elsewhere on the Internet it is a record of the penguins , in many media, sizes and formats, which I have acquired over the years. I have some figures in metal, glass, acrylic, porcelain, in the form of toys, mostly plush and beanie-like, and some miscellaneous penguin-related items. You will notice that I also included a section about the LINUX computer operating system, having a penguin as its logo. 2 June 2004 - I am very happy to have received The Golden Web Award 2003-2004 for this web site!

    Penguins are birds that cannot fly , but they swim very well and spend most of their lives in the sea. There are 17 species of penguin. Feathers : Penguins have shiny, waterproof feathers that help keep their skin dry. They have more feathers than most other birds - about 70 feathers per square inch. Each year, penguins molt, losing their old feathers and growing new ones. Some penguins have a feathery crest (like the Macaroni penguin and the Rockhopper penguin Anatomy : The Emperor Penguin is the largest penguin. It is up to 3.7 feet (1.1 m) tall and weighs up to 65 pounds (30 kg); this is bit less than half the size of an adult person. Penguin bones are solid, not hollow (most birds have hollow bones). Male and female penguins look very similar. All penguins have a big head, a short, thick neck, a streamlined shape, a short, wedge-shaped tail, and tiny, flipper-like wings.They have webbed feet which they use for swimming. Penguins are countershaded; they have a lighter color on the belly and a darker color on their back; this coloration helps camouflage them when they are in the water, hiding them from predators.
