I am curious about how they grow into the colorful beak. When they come back in the Spring, they already have it. Feathers are shed and brighter ones grow in. They shed the colorful beak in the Fall and have a dull beak during the Winter.

Puffins making their burrows - lots of nooks and crannies in the Shetland Island cliffs!  :D

From a Puffin Cam Mod, "Hi everyone - we know you all must be antsy about the status of the puffin cam this year. We are working hard with Project Puffin to get you the puffin cams while ensuring the safety of the staff and the birds. We hope to have an updated date soon!"  :)

At least we can grab a glimpse at the UK Shetland Cliffs, but it is so big and messy!  :o

Hi Peep, I'd love to see the Shetland islands. I have a favorite show I watch that is filmed there.
I pray puffin cams will return soon. I do love to watch those little puff balls.
Thanks for keeping us updated. Take care  :-*
