Not The Least

Least Auklet - Aethia pusilla

Update - this photo made Photo Of The Week at Birder's World on August 17th, 2009!

OK, they ARE called "Least Auklets", as they are the smallest (or among the smallest species), but on Saint Paul Island, they WERE the most abundant! Cute little devils (about 6")

Enjoy!
