Beautiful birds, almost comical in appearance... they make me smile. Such a treasure to have, I would have to go two thousand miles and then a boat ride to the islands where they nest. Thank you for sharing, Will.

Hi Will, good DOF, and its always great to get two subjects in the same frame. I like how the puffin on the right seems to be looking at his mate, and that both are showing off their wing spreads. I wish the puffin on the left was a touch lower against all of the foliage BG. Still, well captured.
Beautiful shot Will. Looks like synchronized flight. I plant to visit Machias Seal Island in July to photograph puffins, and this is inspirational! Well done.
