Atlantic Puffin
At burrow gives a low, moaning 'arr-arr-arr' growl. Silent at sea. At breeding colonies produces a series of grunting croaks. Chicks give soft peeping calls.
Oriental Stork
Essentially silent like all storks; produces loud mechanical bill-clattering at the nest as a greeting display. Chicks beg with hissing and squeaking. Rarely vocalizes otherwise.

About These Birds
Atlantic Puffin
대서양퍼핀은 '바다의 광대'라 불리는 매력적인 바닷새로, 북부 해식애의 굴에 둥지를 틉니다. 입천장의 뒤를 향한 가시 덕분에 한 번에 12마리의 물고기를 부리에 횡으로 물 수 있습니다. 기후 변화와 남획이 먹이 공급을 위협하면서 개체수가 감소하고 있습니다.
Oriental Stork
The oriental stork is one of the most endangered stork species, with fewer than 3,000 individuals remaining in the wild. It was once widespread across East Asia but declined dramatically due to wetland drainage and pesticide use. Reintroduction programs in Japan and Korea have achieved notable success.
