Default Its a Waddle

A group of penguins on land is called a Waddle. In the water they are called a Raft. Fun fact.

Tom H. Here are some more Penguins, I'm enjoying carving these up in between santas,snowmen, and Folk Art birds. Thank you.

All but one are two inches tall ..the one is two and a half inches tall.

Cute, Marci. Looks like the big guy has his eye on the one with the purple scarf. I really like the different expressions you have on them.

Marci, You not only made me smile, I laughed out loud. I love the one with the ear muffs and the blanket. Oh and the one with the huge eyebrows.

Girl, you are awesome. I love the expressions on their faces.

Keep 'em coming.
Wanda

Marci,
These little guys are very cool, in fact, it looks like they are freezing to death. They need some hot chocolate... Beautiful paint work.

Keep it up, Tom
