- Atlantic Puffins returned to nest at Eastern Egg Rock in Maine after decades of absence, thanks to the work of seabird biologists. Cornell Lab of Ornithology producer David O. Browns pays a visit to the restored colony, the world's first.
The National Audubon Society started Project Puffin in 1973 in an effort to learn how to restore puffins to historic nesting islands in the Gulf of Maine.
I have lived in Maine for 42yrs,and did not know this...wonderful project...
Excellent work!!! Great video!!!!
they're so beautiful. god bless all of you who made/make this possible.
I filmed these beautiful birds in Iceland.
Dr. Kress and his project are such an asset to that Lab. What a great success story his project has been. It's so great to see these beautiful birds back where they belong.
I just love the Puffins and would love to involved some how working with them some day. They deserve all the help they can get especially the baby Pufflings.
What a great program. I hope more and more Puffins come here.
30 years ago I spent 3 weeks on Eastern Egg Rock. On a slow day at the end of the research season Steve sent me out to observe Roseate Terns that briefly gathered at one particular spot just before they started their migration; I spent 5 hours switching between my binoculars and a spotting scope trying to read the numbers off their leg bands... BEST DAY EVER!
Can you explain why puffins are so pretty? I love puffins because they are cool!
One of my favorite bird .. I love puffin so so much .. I want to visit their homeland and I want to spend more and more time with them
Interesting story about puffins. Their hearts are often ripped out and treated as delicacies in a lot of countries.
Appreciate your craft and skill to capture the Project Puffin success in Maine. Thank you.
👍 Great documentary 👌
BIG Thank You 😊
They obtained some Canadian wolves for Yellowstone Park, now they have obtained Newfoundland Atlantic Puffins for Maine. Most of the Bald Eagles in the world are also Canadians. Hey, so am I !!
Puffins posses striking beauty, buy when I see the span of there wings I can not help think how can they get a lift with such small wings?
This is fantastic! I'm so happy this was sooo successful. I follow Cornell Ornith, submit counts, and contribute whenever I can. :)
Wow great video.
Cute. :) Funny ol birds! :)
