Hi all

Here are a few shots of Puffins from last summer. Wasn't really looking for Puffins when I took these but couldn't resist when they posed in front of the camera. :wink:

Man-O-Man, you happen upon Puffins and I can only dream of seeing one in the viewfinder. I'm both envious and in awe of these amazing shots. You are an incredible shooter Sindri.

An excellent set of shots of a bird with a lot of character. One of these days I plan to make a trip north to see some and these are great inspiration.
