Birds of N.E. coast of Labrador 
by Henry B, Bigelow. 
3. Fratercula arctica. Puffin; Sea Parrot. Abundant all along the 
coast. Still breeds in comparative abundance on many of the outlying 
islands. The young were fully fledged and in the water by the 25 th of 
August. Though highly esteemed by the natives, we could not consider 
them a delicacy. Drawings which I made of bills of young just fledged 
show a great resemblance to those of Briinnich’s Murre and the common 
Murre.
