15. What are the adaptation of penguins?

16. Introdution Speedy little blurs flying throgh the water they are penguins but penguins don’t fly they waddle and when babys are born the mother feeds them out of there mouth penguins are like torpedos in water Penguins don’t fly but they do through water

17. Physical Adaptations Penguins have feathers that keep them warm in cold water Their black and white feathers work like camouflage in the water to predators… here’s how it works  When predators are looking from below or from above they use their feather’s to blend in with the water  But on land it’s hard for that to work 

18. Behavioral Adaptations When a penguin get’s too hot it fluffs up it’s feathers to cool off dad Penguins keep their egg’s warm by sitting on them while the mother goes fishing Because their so cold penguins huddle together to create heat and keep warm

19. How birds survive in cold condition? They migrate to warmer regions when winters sets in. they come back after the winter is over
