Did you Know…

There are actually 4 species of Puffin. The Atlantic Puffin are found in Maine and Europe (get it? the Atlantic Ocean). The Horned Puffin can be found in both the Atlantic and Pacific and Tufted Puffin breed across the North Pacific. They can be found in Russia, Japan, Alaska and down the coast of Canada to central California. The last on is called a Rhinocerous Auklet and doesn’t look anything like the beautiful, colorful Puffins we all hope to photograph. For a whole lot more about Puffins read this. Just for the record this article states Puffins can dive 200 feet down in the water to fish. We were told by two different captains that they can dive 300 ft.
