When you see penguin pictures or penguin clipart, you don't automatically think of
the penguin as a bird.
As small, harmless and distinctly colored creatures,
penguins are cute, lovable and fun to watch as they
waddle around on icy terrain, dive into the water and slide on their bellies
over the slippery snow.
With their arm-like flippers hanging down at their
sides and amusing mannerisms, the penguins are in so many ways looking like a
human dressed up in tuxedoes (also called penguin suits :-)) which I
guess is one of the reasons they are popular creatures
that are found in nature documentaries, children's films and advertising.

You can resize or crop them to accommodate any item for which it is being used, place them anywhere on the item simply by copying and pasting or convert them to animated graphics by downloading any one of the various programs geared towards clipart or photograph animation, such as Amara Photo Animation Software 3.0 or Scratch 1.4 software.
Enhancing your project by adding penguin pictures that move, dance and jump is a fun way to captivate your audience or even raise the professional level of the project.

"It is impossible to meet a penguin and continue
feeling angry about something." Anonymous.
"I
have often had the impression that, to penguins, humans are
just other penguins--different, less predictable, occasionally
violent, but tolerable company when he sits still and minds
his own business". Bernard Stonehouse
"They are extraordinarily like children, these
little people of the Antarctic world, either like children, or
like old men, full of their own importance and late for dinner,
in their black tail-coats and white shirt-fronts — and rather
portly withal." Explorer Apsley George Benet

Q: What is black and white, black and white, black and
white?
AA: A penguin rolling down a hill!
What to do with Penguins:
A man drives to a
gas station and gets his tank filled with gas.
The gas
station attendant clerk spots two penguins sitting on the back
seat of the car and asks the driver:
"What's up with the
penguins in the back seat?"
The man in the car replies: "I
just found them. I asked myself what I should do with them but
I haven't a clue."
The attendant suggests he should take
them to the zoo, to which the man replies: "You know, that is
a good idea".
The next day the man with the car is back at
the same gas station. The attendant sees the penguins are
still in the back seat of the car.
"Hey, I thought you were
going to take them to the zoo!" he says.
"Oh, I did," says
the driver, "and we had a great time. Today I'm taking them to
the beach."

Some years ago, Budweiser features a penguin harassing a couple on the telephone and saying "Duby duby doo!" in an attempt to scare them. It was a huge success and is still considered one of the beer company's best commercials
March of the Penguins was a 2005 film co-produced by the National Geographic Society in which the annual migration of Emperor penguins was documented by a group of nature photographers. A huge success, March of the Penguins won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature of 2005.
Published in 1938 and written by
Florence and Richard Atwater, Mr. Popper's Penguins concerns a
destitute house painter called Mr. Popper who finds a penguin that
eventually mates with another penguin.
This results in the Popper
family having 10 penguins that begin to grow and eat all of the
Poppers' food.
In 1939, Mr. Popper's Penguins was a Newberry Honor
Book and is still used as standard reading material for elementary
grade children. Delightful penguin pictures are featured throughout
the book as well.
Pingu is a claymation, stop-motion children's
television serious originally aired from 1986 to 1998 in Switzerland.
Its popularity soon allowed it to be shown in other countries as
well as the U.S., where is enjoyed some success.
The story line
concerns penguin families living in igloos, especially one called Pingu, who has a sister and a friend, called Robby the Seal.
Critics
attribute the success of Pingu to the fact that no language was
involved in the interaction of the characters. Instead, Pingu and
his friends communicate via a loud honking sound, allowing children
of all countries to understand what is happening in the story.
