Macaroni Penguin

The macaroni penguin (Eudyptes chrysolophus) is a species of penguin found
from the Subantarctic to the Antarctic Peninsula. One of six species of
crested penguin, it is very closely related to the royal penguin, and some
authorities consider the two to be a single species. It bears a distinctive
yellow crest, and the face and upperparts are black and sharply delineated
from the white underparts. Adults weigh on average 5.5 kg (12 lb) and are 70
cm (28 in) in length. The male and female are similar in appearance; the male
is slightly larger and stronger with a relatively larger bill. Like all
penguins, it is flightless, with a streamlined body and wings stiffened and
flattened into flippers for a marine lifestyle.
