THE EAZOEBILL 



(Alca tor da) 



THE Kazorbill is a bird of the rocks, collecting in early 

 spring from all parts of the British Seas, and taking up its 

 residence in its old breeding-places, precisely as is the case 

 with the Puffin. Wherever the cliffs are high and bold and 

 rocky enough you may be sure of meeting with the Eazorbill 

 between the months of April and August. Like the Puffin 

 and the Guillemot, it is very gregarious, and not only 

 associates with its own kind, but may be seen repeatedly in 

 the company of various other rock-haunting birds. Whether 

 on sea or land its habits are intensely interesting, and the 

 bird becomes even more so when we bear in mind that it is 

 the nearest surviving relation of the now probably extinct 

 Great Auk.
