What is the sea parrot commonly known as? A puffin.

A puffin is a small seabird recognized for its upright posture, colorful triangular bill, and black-and-white plumage. The nickname “sea parrot” refers mainly to the bird’s bright bill and facial markings, which can resemble a parrot’s vivid colors. Puffins belong to the auk family, a group of diving seabirds found mainly in the Northern Hemisphere.

The Atlantic puffin is the species most often associated with the name. It breeds on rocky northern coasts and islands, including parts of Iceland, the United Kingdom, Norway, and eastern Canada. Puffins spend much of the year at sea and return to land during the breeding season, often nesting in burrows or rock crevices.

Puffins are excellent swimmers and use their wings to “fly” underwater while catching small fish. Their bright breeding-season bills become duller after the season ends. A common mistake is assuming puffins are penguins: puffins live in the Northern Hemisphere, while penguins are native to the Southern Hemisphere.
