March of the Pengoowins

[thewayne]

VERY COOL! The film didn't come to Alamogordo, and we normally don't see films when we're in Phoenix or otherwise out of town. So...

We bought some DVDs whilst in Phoenix (March of the Penguins, Waking Ned Devine, and Harry Potter/Goblet of Fire) and watched March. Very good. I watched the Critter Cam special, quite interesting. I loved the technology of the camera and what they were able to learn with it. It has built-in depth and temperature gauges and showed exactly how penguins feed.

Russet and I had a lot of questions, any penguin experts out there? :-)

I'm not an expert, but I once played on on TV.

I have also watched lots and lots of documentaries.

I did have a course in Ornithology, but I wouldn't call myself an expert. The one tidbit I remember about penguins is that unlike other birds their feathers are not aligned in tracks. They are feathered all over to provide for more insulation.
