Here, I don't know too much, but hopefully this will help!

The fratercula arctica (Atlantic puffin) is commonly dubbed as the 'sea parrot' or the 'clown of the sea' due to it's brightly colored beak during mating season.

They can dive approximately 200 feet into the water while they are searching for food.

Puffins can travel 88kph in the air, but they have to flap their wings anywhere from 300-400 times per minute.

To eat the fish they catch, puffins hold them in their beak. An average puffin can hold about a dozen, but the current record is 61 fish!

Puffins are usually thought bigger than what they are. An actual puffin is about 25cm tall and weighs 450 grams.

The puffins life span is usually 20-25 years. The oldest puffin recorded is 32 years old.
