Horned puffin. The Horned Puffin nests in colonies on islands and coastlines of Alaska. It is a smallish, picturesque bird with a large, triangular orange and red bill, and bright orange legs and feet. Because of its coloration, the Horned Puffin was named “sea parrot” and “clown of the sea” by early sailors.
