It got its name after small sea birds - Murrelets that nest there (in Russian it sounds like “Starik”). The Starichkov Island is a nature reserve on water which abounds in puffins, loons, cormorants and other waterfowl. Several nests of Steller’s Sea Eagle and a seal harem are situated on the island.
