Incoming!!!
One of my favorite photos from Ireland. I have been waiting and I mean WAITING!!! to see and interact with Puffins. Years ago I randomly went to Iceland and I was so excited to see Puffins but we went on the bumper part of the season and the Puffins had just gone out to sea for the season. That Iceland adventure was back in 2015 so you can only imagine my excitement and anxiousness when I thought that maybe we could see Puffins on our trip to Ireland.
Well Ireland did not disappoint, they were everywhere! They are so much smaller than I thought they would be, maybe the size of a robin. It was fun to watch them fly but those guys are quick so getting a shot of them inflight was so difficult. So you can only imagine my happiness with this shot. Can I go back? I need more Puffin time.
