He is also know as the clown of the sea parrot. It is twelve inches tall and it as a wingspan of twenty-four inches. It has a thick body, a large head and a high flattened bill. Every spring their bills and weebed feet change color.
Puffins have two sets of eyelids, inner and outer.
The inner eyelids shield the puffins eyes from seawater while it darts about hunting food. During most years puffins are not very colorful. The puffin uses its short webbed feet to move in a upright position. Its small waddling steps give it an awkward apperance. For forty days or so both puffins take turns keeping the egg warm, by tucking the egg under one wing and leaning against it.
