Did you know? Penguins are certified romantics?

Penguins actually propose with pebbles. When December arrives and the breeding colonies come to life, male penguins begin their charm offensive by scouring the shoreline for the most perfect pebble they can find. Once they’ve chosen their gem, they waddle over to their intended partner and gently place the pebble at her feet. If she accepts it, it’s the penguin equivalent of saying “Yes!” and the pair begins building a nest and a partnership for the rest of their days!

  2. Love this story. After the females lay the egg the males stay and protect it until it hatches. They must keeping warm also. I think it is very touching.
