And there it goes. How do they fly and take off so fast...


My first photo posting on the forum. Birds were shot in Skellig Michael, a remote rocky island south-west of Ireland. Magnificent view and loads of birds (eg. Razorbills and Gannets in addition to the Puffins).

I like the expressions on the puffins face in the first two. Very nice colors too. I wish I could go to Ireland...

Thank you all for the comments. These were my first puffin shots (I've always adored these funny looking creatures. I was hoping to get a shot of a puffin taking off but my Fuji S3 and Nikkor 80-200 combo just couldn't keep up with them...

One more. Posing infront of it's nest concealed under a small cliff.

Lovely shot - - I'm just one of those who want more "space" for them to look into & here the canvas ends ......

But past that I really like this one as well.

Welcome to the forum! Wonderful shots of what has to be 1 of the cutest birds ever. Puffins and pinguins are so adorable The thing that cracks me about the puffins is that their eyes have kinda' of an upper-split (instead of being round). That makes them have that "huh? what's goin' on?" look The top of it's beak reminds me of salmon-sashimi LoooL
Hope to see more irish native birds!
P.S. forgot...last 1 you posted is my favourite
