    The puffin

     

    IUCN list: Vulnerable

     

    Frigid air, cheeks flushed and icy finger on the shutter… We wait. Patiently.

     

    A ravenous gull has caused mayhem and protective parents are all hiding deep in their sheltered burrows on the cliff edge on the Isle of Canna. Coast clear – vigilantly, they emerge slowly, one by one stretching their wings.

     

    Lifelong mated couples return to land once a year only to lay eggs. Once old enough, pufflings will leave to the waters, where these birds spend 5 years before returning to land to start the cycle all over again.

     

    These beauties are now listed as vulnerable due to an increase of predators on islands, as well as toxic contamination and climate change. Unfortunately, Atlantic puffin are also still hunted for their meat, eggs, and feathers too.
