“Coulterneb”, “Sea parrot”, “Tammynorie”, a few of the nicknames attributed by humans to this fascinating comic seabird. Puffins fly thousands of miles in migration, dive to over 60 metres quickly and with ease, move at surprising speed on dry land and can live to over 60 years of age. The most incredible facet of puffin behaviour is their tameness and, perhaps as a result, their therapeutic effect on humans, who can sit by the burrows and commune with one of the most fascinating, comic, unique, wild creatures.
