🐧Adelie penguin
Пингвин на Адели (Pygoscelis adeliae) е нелетяща птица от раздел Пингвиноподобни. Един от най-разпространените видове пингвини. Това е средно голям пингвин, дълъг около 70 cm. Живее по югоизточните брегове на Антарктида и на някои съседни острови. Гнезди на многочислени колонии по равни или скалисти места близо до морето. Пингвинът на Адели се връща винаги на едно и също място за гнездене. Мъжките излизат от морето в началото на пролетта, заемат малка територия и започват да строят примитивно гнездо от камъни. Когато пристигне женската, се съвкупяват и заедно довършват строежа на гнездото.
