An auk is a bird of the family Alcidae in the order Charadriiformes. Extant auks range in size from the least auklet, at 85 g and 15 cm , to the thick-billed murre, at 1 kg and 45 cm . They are good swimmers and divers, but their walking appears clumsy. Modern auks can fly . Due to their short wings, auks have to flap their wings very quickly in order to fly.
