The arrangement of blood flow in the limbs of penguins is that of a counter-current exchange system where the cold blood coming from limbs flows parallel but in the opposite direction then the hot core-temperature blood coming from the heart. As the the hot blood flows outward it re-warms the venous blood which in turns cools down the arterial blood.
