Although many aspects of penguin biology have been studied, the feathers have received less attention except with regard to thermoregulation. The biomechanics of penguin feathers are the focus of this thesis. By studying penguins in comparison to other wing-propelled aquatic fliers, it may be possible to understand how penguin feathers evolved. Fourteen species were sampled, including aerial flyers, aerial flyers that are also wing propelled divers, as well as flightless wing propelled divers.
