Some of you have seen it, a film I made a few years ago of said birds plus friends from my home country of Wales https://vimeo.com/130953758  Hunting is a long gone practice there.

These birds are breeding at close to the southernmost areas where they do.  Currently they are doing well  but elsewhere that is not so.  When I visit the UK on sees the effect of climate change changing wildlife, with 'southern' species moving in, and crazy summers like they have just had.

Thank you Martin. I've just returned from a trip around Iceland and many puffins. Concern about their numbers is real and shared, even by hunters.  What is so different from this country is that denial of climate change is almost unknown

But of interest to some about the impact of climate change on Puffins.
