*** About Atlantic Puffins: Atlantic puffins (Fratercula arctica) are small seabirds with a distinctive colorful beak during the breeding season. Frequently found in the coastal areas of the North Atlantic Ocean, puffins are adept swimmers using their wings to 'fly' underwater while hunting for fish. On land, they nest in cliff-top colonies, digging burrows in which to lay a single egg. Known for their monogamous nature, puffins often return to the same mate and burrow each year. These birds are not only significant as indicators of ocean health but also beloved for their endearing appearance and behaviors.:
