PENGUINS...THE NEWEST BEACH BUMS?

Good Morning Friends.

Today Krumbs and I discovered a great new tidbit of information.  Did you know there are penguins living in Africa?  We had no idea either, until Krumbs came up with a fantastic article posted on the Imagination-Cafe about African Penguins!  WHO KNEW?!?!?

When we picture penguins, (and we do, because they are one of our favorite animals) we imagine mega-insulated cold weather superstars, who belly-slide down snow covered mountains and plunge into icy ocean waters.  We don't picture hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters and we certainly don't picture AFRICA!!! 

According to scientist, David Brown, Krumbs and I need to adjust our picture!  In his article, "Penguins of Africa", Mr. Brown talks all about African Penguins...and it is pretty amazing stuff.  Do you know one group of African Penguins is made up of 3,000 penguins living together?  Did you know these penguins live on a sandy beach instead of an icy shore and that if we're not careful, these amazing animals could become extinct?  (We've just learned about them and now...they might disappear?)  Read more about these crazy, beach bum penguins on the Cafe by clicking here.
