Almost a penguin

The common murre runs/flaps its way across the water to get airborne.
Due to its black and white pattern it looks like a penguin, at least to me.


Uria aalge
In the Atlantic, some populations include "bridled" or "ringed" individuals, which have a white eye-ring and a white line extending backward from the eyes. Bridled birds are more common farther north.
