I came across this short little video of two puffins, just hanging around and thought it was worth sharing. It was taken and shared by a man named Andrew on Flickr. He gave me permission to post his pictures on the site so I will! =)

You can watch the video here. I would post it but I cannot. It will open in a new window so you won’t technically leave this site.

Here are the photographs he took:

These puffins are playing hide-n-go-seek with this photographer, ippop from flickr. It is so much fun. Maybe they think since they can’t see him—he can’t see them. Puffins are quirky little birds, aren’t they?

Here is what the photographer had to say:

Every fall the young puffins fly from there holes at night, towards the lights, in to the town. They land there helpless and hungry trying to make there way to the sea. Kids search for them with flashlights and boxes to put them in and that same night or the morning after they trow the young puffins out to sea.

You can find some beautiful photographs of puffins in the following book.

It is self-published so you will be supporting an excellent photographer. If you are interested in this book click here.

(We do not receive any profit from recommending this book—it just honestly has some good puffin photographs).
