Puffin During Take-off

This series of images was taken from a boat that was circumnavigating Eastern Egg Rock. You might know this small island's name because it is where the Atlantic puffin reintroduction project was started. The re-intro was a success, needless to say.

    Interesting foot action there. I hope you are staying dry and having fun in Maine. It's wet here, too.

    I grew up in a land-o-puffins. What is the reintroduction project? Don't know about it and would love to know more.

    That's a cute "running start". Love the feet.

    Thanks all. If you've never seen puffins, this is one of the best places to do so.
