They have thick skin and lots of fat (blubber) under their skin to keep warm in cold weather. They also huddle together with their friends to keep warm. Emperor penguins have developed a social behavior that when it gets cold, they huddle together in groups that may comprise several thousand penguins. The dark colored feathers of a penguin's back surface absorb heat from the sun. It also keeps them to warm up too. Penguins tightly packed feathers overlap to provide waterproofing and warmth. They coat their feathers with oil from a gland near the tail to increase impermeability.
