Southern Rockhopper Penguins were one of the two species we saw with crests. We saw a colony in the Falkland Islands. They are the smallest of the seven penguin species I saw on the trip, and we saw them hopping on rocks as they tried to move down a rocky slope. Some other penguin species hop as well.
Penguins are simply a marvel to watch in the water, shirking all of their land-based ungainliness. Penguins are capable of reaching instantaneous speeds of 10-15 mph immediately preceding their departure from the sea, when air released from their feathers creates a bubble layer that helps reduce drag.
