Peering at Puffins
<p>The small seabirds with brightly coloured beaks are a favourite among wildlife lovers. From their photogenic looks to their clumsy, waddling gait, there’s just something endearing about them.</p>
<p>Sadly, for those who want more puffins in their lives, these auks (not to be confused with orcs — although few people are likely to) spend most of their lives out at sea, only coming ashore to breed in the summer.</p>
