1 Adelie penguins are the spokesmen of the penguin species! Their black and white tuxedoes are what come to mind when we think of penguins. Adelie penguins are easy to recognize, because they have white rings around their eyes. Moreover, their bills are short and partially covered by feathers. When Adelie penguins walk, their long, stiff tails drag the ground. Living in Antarctica and its surrounding islands, Adelie penguins are quite small - they are about 3 feet tall and weigh around 8.5 pounds.
