#30DayChartChallenge - Day 8: Distributions | Animals

Gave 📦{ggExtra} a try for some “densigrams” along the axes. Made the plot look quite busy so I tried to pare back as much of the rest of it as I could.

🔧: #rstats, with 📦{palmerpenguins} 🐧🐧🐧

Scatter plot comparing flipper length and bill length for three penguin species: Adelie, Chinstrap, and Gentoo. Overlaid histograms show flipper and bill distributions. Additional histogram below displays body mass distribution. Clean design with subtle colours.

Code: github.com/cararthompson/30DayChartChallenge/blob/main/sc…

Any strong feelings on clarifying colours with labels inside the plot rather than with a legend? I really like a direct annotation!
