Not sure what he was doing with the fish lol, he was more interested showing it of and bowing to other birds with it.( tempting a female with it maybe)

When the Puffins land they need to get down the burrow quick or this happens.

They also have to run the gauntlet at some locations with great blackbacks who will take Puffins.

Very nice set of shots. I bet the one with the fish in his mouth was telling a joke. :lol:

Puffins goes hand in hand with Guillemot for some reason.

The portraits are great.
