New England, the northeastern part of the U.S., is a great place to go birdwatching. There are mountains, forests, rivers and lakes, and a long seashore. On Monday I went to see a puffin, sometimes referred to as the penguin of the north. It is a small black and white sea bird like the penguin, but it has a big orange beak like a parrot. Unlike penguins, puffins float on the sea and dive for fish using their wings for propulsion. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
