Lots of story telling in these penguin colony images from Antarctic. We have many penguin images in the Gallery, including a full collection of affordable 9 x 9's.

Early Antarctic explorers actually thought penguins were fish and classified them accordingly. In fact, as birds, they are superbly designed for their job, flying underwater with great skill. Their compact bodies have a breastbone that makes an excellent keel and they have massive paddle muscles to propel them at speeds up to 25 miles per hour.
