    Wtf that’s so big

    On a related note, I was also surprised during a school trip at how small puffins are

    I think I’m not good at knowing bird sizes

      Penguins man. The biggest species can get to a bit over 3ft tall, most common species about 2ft, smallest 1ft adults.

      I’ve seen lots of penguins in my life, and yet I always think if I show up to Antarctica it will be full of people sized penguins.

        Same here! Billy Madison really fucked my perspective on penguin sizes.

      Apparently there are different types. Great Spotted Kiwi can reach 18" tall.
