National Penguin Awareness Day

It's that time of year again: National Penguin Awareness Day is today, Jan. 20, 2011.

When it comes to unheralded national days celebrated in January, this one blew the COUNTRYLUTHIER's socks off. This event marked each year on January 20th is a festival to make us aware of changes in our world and in the habitat of the much beloved penguin. I say Honk if You love Penguins on that day or come up with your own unique way to celebrate the penguin and what it means to you. Pick out one of the many species of penguin and learn somethiing about the flightless bird.. This day will help esnure that many of the species are around a little longer. Numerous penguins are being forced into extinction by enviornments varying from year to year. This makes National penguin awareness day extremely important.

Don't make it difficult. National Penguin Awareness Day can be shared with with those you associate or love.

Here are a few ways the COUNTRYLUTHIER may just celebrate.

1. Put a Black and White sign on your penguin mobile saying "Honk if YOU Love Penguins!!"
2. Forward an email around with your favorite Penguin Pic.
3. Go see that movie with Jim Carey in it that has the penguins, Mr. Poppers Penguins or buy it.
4. Draw a penguin or two on something.
5. Waddle like a penguin some time during National Penguin awareness day.

Vistit a Zoo or habitat and appreciate them in person.

If you missed it in 2012, start now for 2013!

Celebrate the mostly flightless bird of the Antarctic!

National Penguin Day is January 20th, 2012. Are you ready to honk?

In honor of the great day, COUNTRYLUTHIER proposes to get a bumper sticker honk if you love penguins

Penguin, the bird

The penguin from batman

As a kid, the penguin was a nemisis of Batman, I don't know if he still is capable of evil deeds or got put away for good but he was an interesting well dressed villian.

Amazing or at least hilariously entertaining Penguin movies

Awesome video of Penguins leaping with english narration!

Celebrate National Penguin Awareness day with live pictures of what the day is all about, preserving penguins and their habitat.

Don't forget, January 20th is National Penguin Awareness Day!

Make sure penguins are around for a long time to come. While we have no indigenous penguins in Virginia and Mississippi, we love a great celebration and this qualifies.
