Who doesn’t love a Puffin? They are a species of Auk (Alcidae) and are pelagic, meaning they spend most of their life out at sea and come back to land only to breed. You can see them around much of the UK coast line from mid April through to Mid August. The best views I have had were in the North East of England and Scotland.
