— penguins. But genetic and morphological data both point to this conclusion, and additional evidence places tubenoses and penguins within a group recently dubbed Aequornithes, or “higher waterbirds.” Four families are often recognized: storm-petrels, albatrosses, shearwaters and petrels , and diving-petrels.

Why this one city alone would be named for birds, in this country of 1,800 species, is unclear, but it could very well be a designation inspired by the nearby Islas Ballestas, an uninhabited island group just offshore from Pisco and home to enormous breeding colonies of Humboldt Penguins , Inca Terns , Peruvian Boobies , and many other species.

Itcher birds, migratory members of the tern family. A fascinating exception to this, of course, are penguins. Loons hardly ever fly when they are on their breeding grounds or their winter-water, but the migration is for many loons a non-trivial distance. People were doing things like that with birds, sharks, and humans.

It covers 434 species across 9 orders and 18 families of birds.
