Clynn, Kelsey, Lisa, Tig, BL aren't the only ones traveling and visiting friends and family!

Royal Albatross - Manaaki went to check out a plot of land next door. The grass is greener and a view, you can't beat.
Then back to his nest. Oops! Mind that ditch you made Manaaki.

What a great Wimbledon Men's Final!  8)

Karen, I don't blame you, sounds delicious!

Tsk, it's going to be 117 degrees in Phoenix today. It'll be 105 here. I can't imagine Death Valley temps  :P ...  Looking forward to hearing news of Lisa.  ;D

Tig, 2 BE's  ;D. ... Safe travels  :)

Phyl, thanks for sharing LB's pics and update. I wish I was on the riverboat or cruise ship. Or is that a stationary boat like building? It's neat whatever it is.

Atlantic Puffin Burrow Cam - BIG NEWS! SCROLL TO SEE IT ALL! 7-14-2023
Our precious puffling, Duryea, was banded  by the Seal Island crew. Photos attached below of darling Dur and his new bracelet :
By all accounts, the pufflings are doing incredibly well this year. They're hardy and healthy, a welcome surprise after this wet season decimated some other seabirds (namely the terns). And Dur especially seems to be doing extraordinarily well- look how big he's gotten! Duryea weighs 405 grams with a wing chord of 117 mm, according to researchers who banded Dur.

The other bit of exciting news is that the Seal Island team and I will be doing another live event on Tuesday August 1st @ 7pm ET. We'll be talking about the season on the island, celebrating what will likely be fledging time for the puffins, and answering your questions about the puffins and other aspects of seabird/island life. Don't forget to submit your questions for the researchers here: https://forms.gle/57txw2YNh...
There will also be a live Q&A chat for the duration of this chat, so you'll have a chance to ask questions in real time, too.

Congratulations to Willie and Millie on raising a healthy, happy puffling! <3 <3

Lisa  just texted and should be here by 4:15  nest time.  In Ohio.  She's really movin'

LANI   Manaaki's gait I would describe a "lumbering"  ;)  Thanks for the puffin report. Duryea ( so cute)- another healthy baby - like Manaaki
