About These Birds
Long-billed Murrelet
Long-billed Murrelet, 26–28 cm, breeds remarkably far inland in old-growth forests of Siberia, nesting directly on mossy tree branches — no burrow. Sea-going for the rest of the year, wintering off eastern Asian coasts. Piscivore; dives for small fish. Near Threatened; nesting ecology unusual for alcids.
Tufted Puffin
Frailecillo coletudo, 35-40 cm. Largos mechones amarillos colgantes en época de cría, cuerpo negro y blanco. Pacífico norte. Anida en colonias en acantilados. Preocupación menor.
