Birds of the Seabird Institute

From Maine's iconic Atlantic Puffin to the its West Coast cousin the Tufted Puffin, from the elegant Roseate Tern to the tube-nosed Leach's Storm Petrel, our oceans are rich with avian biodiversity. Audubon listens to what seabirds tell scientists about the health of the world's oceans and offshore areas that are important for birds.
