Just got back from a week in Maine. A highlight was the trip to Machias Seal Island with Bold Coast Charters out of Cutler, Maine. Lots of Puffins, Razorbills and Common Murre.

C&C would be appreciated.

Very nice, and the birds themselves remind me of Droppy the Dog. So serious all the time, yet, so loveable. Sorry, bad analogy, but great pics.
