Er- make that a "horned" puffin.
Also photographed among the Pribilof Islands- in the middle of the Bering Sea.
Looking south and down at the sun reflecting off the ocean. Some tough lighting on St Paul's because the cliffs where the bird colonies are located face mostly south. One tries, one copes .

Beauty image, eh? Charlie, I like the composition but it seems a bit noisy. Is it my monitor, my eyes or for real?

Thanks for the comments and feedback, guys.
Alan- you're right- for real. Bird nesting colonies are often noisy, but the noise here comes from the poor technique of my lab workers. Oh, wait- I don't have a lab; I do it myself. Then it must be something else .
Here's a re-do. Better, I hope.

You beat me to the punch Charlie, I was going to tell CT to head north
I like the pose and they are one of my favorites, so that means I like it Well done Charlie!! I would get after those lab workers, you pay them too much!!
