Penguins

Penguins are fascinating, funny and entertaining, and Birdland is home to England’s only collection of King Penguins. In the wild there are 17 species of penguin, which is a group of flightless birds designed for speed in water rather than the air.

Daily Feeding display takes place twice a day – with a small feed at 11am and the main Penguin feeding display at 3.00pm See them tuck into what they love most with an informative and fun explanation from one of our resident experts.

Above and Below the Water

Our window in the water shows how our penguins’ much loved waddling turns into power and elegance once they are underwater and truly in their element.
