"As march approaches, the harsh climate of the Antartic worsens with the cutting winds. This march, the rest of the heard had been either lost, killed or poached. In such a situation- she still insists in finding food for her newborn, and he stands fast courageously to endure the lone and harsh wait of 65-70 days. They both know what has to be done, and it will be done. The egg will be transferred between his feet, where he will keep it warm- and she will go hunt for food. They share an intimate moment- a minute before she leaves alone for the hunt that decides their fates."
(This really happens, the male emperor penguins usually stand still for 65-70 days with no food at all. Guarding and warming the newborn's egg. The female's usually have to go all the way to the water (sea?ocean?) to get food, which they bring back. The egg has to be transferred from the female to the male within 2-3 seconds or it will freeze to death, and many do.)

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
To help support the Literature community we hold regular contests. It is an opportunity for you to get involved and gain some exposure. Contest winners will be featured in a news article and a journal entry--as well as other fabulous prizes. Please read this article for more information on how you can participate!

Open to all mediums. Deadline is March 10, 2010 @ 11:59pm PST.
