Penguins sleep for a few minutes at a time, either during the day or during the night, wherever they happen to be.

But they sleep for longer periods on land and at night.

*They will sleep sitting in the water, standing up, lying down or just sitting.

*I think I might be a penguin....

I saw a video of penguins, one gang was returning from the sea, the other was going to the sea, they stopped to have a quick discussion, I’m guessing to ask what the fish situation was like, then they both went on their way, apart from one penguin forgot what group he was in and joined the group returning from the sea, one of the other penguins noticed this and went back to get him.
