Guillemot is the common name for several species of seabird in the Alcidae or auk family, part of the order Charadriiformes. In Europe, the term covers two genera, Uria and Cepphus. In North America the Uria species are called murres and only the Cepphus species are called "guillemots".

Medium-sized black-and-white seabird with a thin and sharp bill. Note red legs. Nonbreeding birds have whitish heads and underparts. Forages by diving, using its wings to propel itself underwater. Catches fish, worms, and other prey from near the bottom.

The common murre or common guillemot (Uria aalge) is a large auk. It has a circumpolar distribution, occurring in low-Arctic and boreal waters in the North Atlantic and North Pacific . It spends most of its time at sea, only coming to land to breed on rocky cliff shores or islands.

The Black Guillemot (Cepphus grylle) is a lively member of the bird life on Eastern Egg Rock. The pigeon-sized Guillemots dance atop the big boulders and nest in burrows among the rocks. The one in the picture has a fish called a Sand Eel that it is going to feed its young.

The black guillemot or tystie (Cepphus grylle) is a medium-sized seabird of the Alcidae family, native throughout northern Atlantic coasts and eastern North American coasts. It is resident in much of its range, but large populations from the high arctic migrate southwards in winter.

The Guillemot, a member of the auk species, is a distinctive seabird known for its summer breeding on land. It’s slightly bigger than the razorbill and sports a brown head and upper body with a contrasting white lower body.

A hardy bird with a rich black-and-white plumage and showstopping red legs, Black Guillemots are a highlight of the cold rocky coasts of the North Atlantic and Arctic. These duck-sized seabirds forage close to shore, flapping their small wings to power deep dives for fish and invertebrates near the sea bottom.

In the northeast, this bird may be seen swimming and diving around rocky shorelines. A 'Black' Guillemot only in summer, it looks mostly frosty white in winter. Very similar to Pigeon Guillemot of Pacific Coast, and overlaps with it locally in Alaska.

Black Guillemots breed along rocky ocean coasts and islands, where they seek out crevices in the rocks for nesting. During the breeding season they forage in shallow marine waters near the nest, usually waters less than 100 feet deep.
