This week photo challenge
A close encounter with the penguins! Penguins walk clumsily on land. They belly glide or toboggan, using their flippers to steer them in direction that they want to.Interesting fact is, their legs have special blood vessels to adjust blood temperature and blood flow to prevent their feet from freezing. A remarkable animal indeed.

Penguins are beautiful and fascinating. To be close to them is really a fun and exciting event. Wonderful post.

I’ll bet they were fun to watch! ;-)
