    Gorgeous image, what a catch! I'd love to see puffins in the wild - hopefully this summer in Acadia :).

    Great shot. Sort of doesn't look real - it is so sharp.

    What is it about puffins that make them so cute?

    How cute is that !!! Since all comments mention a 'puffin' am gonna assume its a puffin too :P

    Great shot ! can't decide whether he's in the midst of a take-off or landing ! hehehe

    I guess he must be landing as he seems to be looking down and his feet are pointing down, fantastic shot!

    Thanks for all the kind comments. Yes its a puffin and yes its landing - downhill and into a very stiff breeze

    Like everyone else, I think that it is an amazing shot. Thanks for providing the details--like how it is landing downhill. I'm sure that the wind probably helped "suspend" him while you grabbed this action shot. Nice job! Happy WW!

    Wow Ian that's a pure marvel... Our puffins are not doing so well, not enough food around!
