*** About Atlantic Puffins: Atlantic puffins, known for their colorful beaks and compact bodies, are among the most iconic seabirds found along the coasts of the North Atlantic Ocean. These birds are most recognizable by their striking beak colors which change seasonally and their ability to hold several fish at once during feeding. Puffins are excellent swimmers, using their wings to stroke underwater while using their feet to steer. Each breeding season, they return to the same nesting sites on cliffs or offshore islands, showing incredible site fidelity. The survival of their chick, as shown in this image, depends significantly on the abundance of fish and the absence of predators, highlighting the delicate balance of marine ecosystems.:
