The Atlantic puffin (Fratercula arctica), also known as the common puffin, is a species of seabird in the auk family.
This puffin has a black crown and back, pale grey cheek patches, and a white body and underparts. Its broad, boldly marked red-and-black beak and orange legs contrast with its plumage
Colonies in Iceland alone are home to 60% of the world's Atlantic puffins. Puffins have been given several informal names including "clowns of the sea" and "sea parrots", and juvenile puffins may be called "pufflings"
