On a tiny island off the coast of Iceland every spring,
millions of puffins, the clowns of the sea, return to nest,
lay eggs, and raise their chicks to pufflings. That means
(the children) will be busy in August when the pufflings
venture out at night to take their first flight.
Then, all of the children stay out all night, too. During the
nights of the pufflings, they rescue thousands of stranded
young birds, and in the daytime set them safely free at
the beach. To learn more information about the puffin,
see a film clip and hear the sounds, I highly recommend
a visit to Bruce's Puffin Page - You'll be glad you did! |
