Habitat and Distribution
Crested Auklets are found offshore and along sea coasts. They breed on remote islands and coasts, using the slopes, boulder fields, lava flows, and sea cliffs. They are often found in association with other Auklet species, like the Least Auklets. In the winter, the Crested Auklets remain in ice-free waters South of Japan and in the Gulf of Alaska, particularly near Kodiak I.

Famous quotes containing the words habitat and/or distribution:
“Neither moral relations nor the moral law can swing in vacuo. Their only habitat can be a mind which feels them; and no world composed of merely physical facts can possibly be a world to which ethical propositions apply.”
—William James (18421910)
“The question for the country now is how to secure a more equal distribution of property among the people. There can be no republican institutions with vast masses of property permanently in a few hands, and large masses of voters without property.... Let no man get by inheritance, or by will, more than will produce at four per cent interest an income ... of fifteen thousand dollars] per year, or an estate of five hundred thousand dollars.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
