My witting about Antarctic Penguins


W.A.L.T su
Penguins in Antarctica live in the southern oceans at the bottom of antarctica. But they don't live in the North of the word.  
 
Did you know that penguins can’t fly? When they come ashore they stand up straight and take little short steps.

In antarctica the sun doesn't rise  until summer.All the time there are gales  and the temperature drops to freezing.   

In antarctica the emperor penguins are the one of  few animals that can survive in the pack ice.

When it is cold in antarctica the penguins have a thick layer under their skin, its  called blubber it  keeps them warm during  cold blizzards.

When the penguins get  cold they have thick layers of feathers.
It can overlap the first layer to make it waterproof so they don’t freeze to death
