Skua is a sea bird, and although it doesn't immerse itself in liquid water to warm itself -- like a penguin might, it can float on the water and warm itself that way. As well, when the Skua are in Antarctica, they are breeding, the sun is up 24/7 and the air is warmer than in winter.

The only people who live in Antarctica are scientists on the bases, and the members of an occasional expedition. They all wear warm clothes and their bases are heated, probably with diesel generators and electricity.
