Puffins

Puffins are little birds that look a lot like penguins. They have black feathers and a black head. Their tummies are made up of white feathers. They have white faces and yellow, orange, and black beaks. Puffins are like tiny fluffy balls when they first hatch.

They like to live in groups. Puffins never live alone. They love to be with other puffins. They live in places that have rocks by the water. They build nests in the rocks with small pieces of feathers and twigs. When they are not in their nests, they are swimming in the ocean.

Momma puffins catch small fish to feed the babies. They go out and catch the fish and bring it back to the nest to feed. They do not have baby puffins until they are five years old.

Puffins are pretty birds. They have to live in groups to be happy.
