The '''Horned Puffin''' resembles the Atlantic species of puffin, except for a ridge of hardened skin that rises vertically from above its eyes to the top of its head. According to the US Geological Survey, "about 1.2 million Horned Puffins breed in the North Pacific, almost exclusively in [[Siberia]] and [[Alaska]]."<ref>US Geological Survey, ''Horned Puffin''[http://www.absc.usgs.gov/research/seabird_foragefish/seabirds/flash_cards/horned_puffin.html]</ref> In winter months, they can be found further south, almost down to the waters off the [[California]] coast. <ref>http://www.thebigzoo.com/Animals/Horned_Puffin.asp</ref>
