Over miles of Antarctic ice, little black dots are moving through the deep snow. These are Adelie penguins, which Dr. RL Penney went to study. From his house on a sled, he watched the birds build their nests of stones and guard their eggs. They fought each other and protected their chicks, and they finally swam away in the sea. And they were noisy about it all. Noted zoologist tells the fascinating things he learned while living among them.
