Rockhopper Penguins
Similar to the Macaroni penguins, the
Rockhopper penguins have decorative feather tufts on their heads --
theirs are yellow in color.
Their most unusual trait is their ability
to hop from rock to rock to their nesting places. They keep both
feet together when hopping. Using this method, they are able to
hop up to four or five feet!
