About These Birds

Ancient Murrelet

Ancient Murrelet, 24–27 cm, breeds in burrows on North Pacific islands from British Columbia to Japan. Black hood, grey back, white underparts with yellow bill. Nocturnal at colonies to avoid predators. Chicks lead-march to sea within days of hatching — abandoning the nest very early. Planktivore and piscivore.

Critically Endangered; fewer than 1,000 individuals; nesting habitat threatened by feral cats and goats (now being controlled). Piscivore.
