The provincial bird of Newfoundland and Labrador is the Atlantic Puffin (fratercula arctica), also known as the Sea Parrot or Baccalieu Bird. About 95% of all North America’s puffins breed in colonies around the Newfoundland and Labrador coasts. As people with strong marine heritage, it is appropriate to have a marine bird as our symbol.
