A small seabird of the auk family, particularly any of several small species like the parakeet auklet or least auklet.
From 'auk' + '-let' (a diminutive suffix meaning 'small'). The suffix indicates these are smaller versions of auks.
The least auklet—already the smallest auk—sounds like a tiny angry robot when it vocalizes, producing pig-like squeals and clicking sounds that make you wonder how something so small can make so much noise.
