Hi Gudrun

I really like this series of puffin pics.

Superb colours, just like a postcard.

I saw some of these from an icelandic whale watching boat, but photos too miserable to post...
I am extremely jealous of your pics here!

Best Wishes, and a good weekend
Peter

Herrliche Bilder von diesen bunten Vögeln, Gudrun. Aus dem ersten Bild bin ich zunächst gar nicht schlau geworden, es sieht so aus, als ob das Auge am Hinterkopf sitzt. Ich habe solche Vögel noch nie gesehen.
5 years ago.
Gudrun club has replied to Ruesterstaude club
Danke vielmals, Volker! Die sind nur zur Brutzeit so schön bunt, da sind sie zum Glück morgens und abends an Land bei ihren Bruthöhlen und lassen sich fotografieren. Den Rest des Jahres verbringen sie auf See. Papageienetaucher findet man im Nordatlantik, sie leiden aber schwer unter dem Klimawandel, weil die Sandaale, die sie bevorzugt fressen, immer rarer werden bzw. weil die Makrelen immer nördlicher vorkommen und die Sandaale wegfressen.

Ruesterstaude club has replied to Gudrun club
Vielen Dank für die Informationen, Gudrun! Ja, der Klimawandel wird uns und der Natur noch an allen möglichen Ecken und Enden zu schaffen machen.

In der Tat, und die nachfolgenden Generationen wird es noch viel massiver treffen.

Gudrun club has replied to Tanja - Loughcrew club
Danke vielmals, Tanja! Sie sind einfach herrlich mit ihren Clownsgesichtern! Die armne kerle brüten an manchen Orten gar nicht mehr, weil sie nicht mehr genug zu fressen finden, aber hier gab's zum Glück noch genug Sandaale:-)
