*** About Puffins: Puffins, known for their colorful beaks and charming appearance, are often found in the coastal areas of the North Atlantic Ocean, including Halifax. These seabirds are adept swimmers, using their wings to 'fly' underwater while hunting for fish. They are also known for their unique breeding patterns, nesting in burrows on cliff edges or rocky shores. The longevity of puffins, living up to 20 years or more, combined with their loyal nature of returning to the same nesting site annually, makes them fascinating subjects of both study and admiration. As a focal point of conservation efforts, puffins are considered important indicators of marine health.
