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.
Common Murre
Common Murre, 38–46 cm, is among the most abundant seabirds in the North Atlantic and Pacific. Breeds on cliff ledges in huge colonies; single pear-shaped egg rolls in a circle rather than off the ledge. Piscivore; dives to 180 m for fish. Flies with rapid wingbeats; waddling gait on land.
