This Puffin life
A final evening with the Puffins is always an emotional experience.
They’ll be gone for nine months for a life on the ocean wave.
A final stalk of bedding for their Puffling is all that’s left to do as far as housekeeping is concerned.
This Puffin has a burrow entrance like a Puffin Cathedral. I hope it’s cosier inside for their Puffling than it looks from the outside.
Goodbye Puffins. See you next year.
