Colony of King Penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) in St. Andrews Bay, South Georgia Island, Southern Atlantic Islands, Antarctica

The total population is estimated to be 2.23 million pairs and is increasing. The King Penguin is the second largest species of penguin at about 90 cm (3.0 ft) tall and weighing 11 to 16 kg (24 to 35 lb) Like all penguin species, it has a streamlined body to minimize drag while swimming, webbed feet to propel more force when swimming, and wings that have become stiff, flat flippers
