Information about the Tufted Puffin:
The Tufted Puffin – also called the Crested Puffin – is a pelagic seabird and and member of the Auk family. It is native to the oceans and coastlines of the North Pacific Ocean. It is one of three members of the Fratercula genus. They are about 15 inches tall (35 cm) The males being somewhat larger than the females. Like the other three puffin species, the Tufted Puffin feeds almost exclusively on fish, which are caught by diving from the surface. Their wings are smaller and are more adapted for for underwater swimming than flight. Occasionally squid or other cephalopods are eaten. They can carry a large amount of fish in their bills and bring them back to the nest to feed their young.

Artist’s notes:
The Tufted Puffin was completed on 3.25.2014. I’m not sure why I put off completing a drawing of the only extant species of puffin I hadn’t completed (the other two species being the Atlantic and Horned, which I had completed drawing of many years ago. But when I got it into my head I had a lot of fun rendering this puffin. I wanted a pose that really highlighted the tufts. I will shortly put together a collage of all three species and upload it to my CafePress store.
