| Summary: | sea n The [i]Sea-Parrots[i] bear the name of [i]Parrots[i], upon the account that their Beak is of the same form with that of the Land [i]Parrot[i]. They never quit the Sea or the Shoar; and are always flying upon the surface of the Water, in quest of little Fish. Their [241] colour is black, and their size is much the same with that of a Pullet. There are great numbers of 'em upon the bank of [i]Newfound-Land[i], and near the Coaft of the Island, which the Seamen catch with Hooks cover'd with a Cod's Roe, and hung over the Prow of the Ship.
