🐧 Penguin
A penguin, a flightless bird adapted to water and ice. Variously depicted as a full, black-bodied penguin with a white belly and orange bill or as a penguin head. Often used with an affectionate or playful tone or in association with the cold. Occasionally used to represent a puffin. Apple and WhatsApp’s designs feature a penguin head, with Apple’s bearing a yellow patch on its head, as an emperor penguin.
