About These Birds
Least Auklet
Least Auklet, 15–16 cm, is the smallest auk, breeding in immense colonies (millions) on rocky Aleutian and Bering Sea islands. Dark above, streaked white below; a tiny white plume above the eye. Planktivore; sieves copepods and euphausiids at sea. Makes loud buzzing display choruses at colony.
Little Auk
Little Auk (Dovekie), 17–19 cm, is abundant in the High Arctic, with hundreds of millions breeding in Greenland and Svalbard — one of the world's most numerous seabirds. Tiny, black and white, stubby-billed. Planktivore; dives for copepods. Winters at sea in the North Atlantic, often far offshore.
