They sound like little wet bags of sand.
At our local zoo, some of the penguins like to get in your face at the glass and will follow your finger back and forth and diving under the water. Oddly personable birds!

The Kansas City Zoo Penguin Cam is oddly mesmerizing and quite entertaining at times.

The King Penguins leaving the exhibit at Cincinnati Zoo are some quality stair penguins.
