Seabirds that look like pint-sized penguins blown ashore in Newfoundland after storms Scores of tiny seabirds that look like pint-sized penguins have been blown ashore by back-to-back storms in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Anyone who sees a #dovekie -- and can safely stop to retrieve it -- should gently pick up the bird and put it in a box or even a reusable shopping bag and then take it to the #ocean to place in the water, she said.

Artic ocean birds blown ashore are not land dwelling, so return them to the sea pls.

🪶 Today's #Bird lifer (NB#324) is this #Dovekie found in the #BayofFundy off #GrandManan, #NewBrunswick, Canada.
