*** About Atlantic Puffins: Atlantic Puffins are small seabirds often recognized by their colorful beaks and striking appearance. These birds are especially prevalent along the coasts of the North Atlantic Ocean, including the shores of Nova Scotia, where they breed in large colonies on coastal cliffs or offshore islands. Characterized by their deep dives to catch fish and their burrow-nesting habits, puffins are a symbol of the rugged Atlantic coasts. Their life at sea, away from human habitation during non-breeding seasons, adds to their allure and the mystery surrounding their habits and lifestyle. Conservation efforts are vital as they face threats from both climate change and ocean pollution.
