Puffin (Fratercula arctica) - sitting


Often called the clown of the seabirds due to its bright coloured tall flat bill, black eye markings and orange legs. The nearest breeding colony to Arran is on Ailsa Craig where they nest in colonies in crevices on rocks and cliffs or burrows in the soil. Although sightings on Arran are not common, it is increasingly been seen with most in the summer. They dive for and eat fish and sandeels, and can carry a number of fish crosswise in their bill when out to feed their young.
