razor billed auk sea bird | |
A large aquatic bird moves awkwardly about the beach. | |
The razor-billed auk is a bird which is ideally designed for life in the water. It is black on its back and white on its belly, and has a very powerful beak. The auk has a short tail and small wings, and has lost the ability to fly that its ancestors may have had. The same adaptations which make the auk a specialty swimmer cause it to be extremely awkward on land. A razor-billed auk is in an excellent condition. You attempt to peek at the inventory: You can't see anything. | |
