Did you know that penguins have a National Penguin Awareness Day on the 20 th January and World Penguin Day on the 25 th April? They must be kind of special to have TWO days for us to remember them by; that’s two more than sheep. I have always believed you can’t go wrong with a good penguin film, visiting them at the zoo, of if you are lucky, to see them in the wild. To celebrate penguins in this blog, here are three fun facts about them: · Penguins can hold their breath under water for 20 minutes. · The ‘little’ or ‘fairy’ penguin is the smallest of the penguin species, measuring 33cm in height; they live in southern Australia and New Zealand. · Penguins spend up to 75% of their life at sea. To test your knowledge about penguins, have a gander at this article from The Telegraph newspaper. Happy penguin awareness world day!!!! PS No penguins were harmed in the writing of this blog.
