Penguin Fact

Macaroni Penguins

"Macaroni" used to be a hairstyle in England. (didn't you ever wonder why Yankee Doodle called the feather in his cap, "Macaroni"?  Now you know!)  The Macaroni penguins were so named because the yellow and black feathers sticking out of the side of their heads looked like the English hairstyle.
