The little auk or dovekie (Alle alle) is a small auk, the only member of the genus Alle. It breeds on islands in the high Arctic. There are two subspecies: A. a. alle breeds in Greenland, Iceland, Novaya Zemlya and Spitzbergen, and A. a. polaris on Franz Josef Land.
This is the only Atlantic auk of its size, half the size of the Atlantic puffin at 19–21 cm in length, with a 34–38 cm wingspan. Adult birds are black on the head, neck, back and wings, with white underparts. The bill is very short and stubby. They have a small rounded black tail. The lower face and fore neck become white in winter.
The flight is direct, with fast whirring wing beats due to the short wings. These birds forage for food like other auks by swimming underwater. They mainly eat crustaceans, especially copepods, but also other small invertebrates along with small fish. They collect in large swarms before leaving their breeding rocks to head out to sea for food as well as when they return.

Little is a surname in the English language. The name is ultimately derived from the Middle English littel, and the Old English lȳtel, which mean "little". In some cases the name was originally a nickname for a little man. In other cases, the name was used to distinguish the younger of two bearers of the same personal name. Early records of the name include: Litle, in 972; Litle, in about 1095; and le Lytle, in 1296. The surname has absorbed several non English-language surnames. For example, Little is sometimes a translation of the Irish Ó Beagáin, meaning "descendant of Beagán". Little can also be a translation of the French Petit and Lepetit, as well as other surnames in various languages with the same meaning ("little"), especially the German name Klein during World War II.

Råhuset Sundays Open Stage; October 26th, 2014. Original song by Sarah Little Auk. Filmed by Carlos Ochoa. Lyrics: LAST CIGARETTES I would like you to stay a little longer, Time goes by so fast, I know you have to go But don’t worry, I don’t blame you Just stay until I finish my cigarette I know you have to go Just leave me now But in the sun the children grow We grow old and never back but I’ll still love you And still now when I see your light You make me smile, you make me smile Even though you’ll never be mine And there we were, watching the moon go down Those are just painful memories And here I am, counting all the stars in the sky … I will follow you I know you have to go Just leave me now I know you have to go Just leave me now

Moving through the day
Floating above surface
Never touchin' ground
I'm quite insecure
Never moving back or forward
Paces slow and sound
I spread my paper wings
At surprising speed
I'm diving down
I'm not even here
Look above your head
I'm smaller than a fly
Ooh I never think
I always do
Never will fall into...
Ooh I never do
I always think
Never will fall into you
You draw feathers on my wings
You just tape them to my skin
Funny I feel safe and sound
Ooh I never think
I always do
Never will fall into...
Ooh I never dare
To fall for you
Never will fall into you
Let me spread these paper wings for you
Let me spread these paper wings for you
