Atlantic Puffin, also known as a common puffin, is a seabird. The Atlantic Puffin naturally remains at sea for most of the year, and only comes inland to breed. These birds are nicknamed "sea parrots" or "clowns of the ocean" mainly because of their visually striking black and white feathers and their brightly colored beaks. Male Puffins are about 10 to 11 inches, females are measuring slightly less. Black feathers on their backs and wings and white feathers covering their cheeks, breast, stomach, and legs of the Atlantic Puffin. They also have dark markings around its eyes that resemble applied black eyeliner make-up. The nickname "sea parrots" comes from their large, wedge-shaped bills that are vivid orange, red, yellow, deep blue, and black in color. Their legs are orange, with webbed feet.
