The tufted puffin is a seabird notable for its distinctive yellow tufts of feathers that appear during breeding season. Think of these tufts as stylish, feathery earrings. They are found in the North Pacific Ocean and are adept divers. Unlike some puffins that nest in burrows, tufted puffins often nest in grassy slopes. They are like the hipsters of the seabird world, known for their unique look and habitat choices.
