I didn’t know that baby puffins are called pufflings….

Pufflings! Big Grin

My wife and I are taking a bucket list cruise on a smallish vessel this summer. We'll start in Ireland and work our way up the west coast of Scotland up to the Orkney islands and Faroe Islands. Then across to the SW coast of Iceland. We'll go around Iceland counterclockwise and end in Reykjavik.

I'm sure we'll see lots of puffins!

iPad keyboard + no reading glasses = typos galore. Big Grin

That sounds like a great trip. We expect a travelogue with lots of pics!

Reminds me that we used to have a forumite’s kid who we sort of refer to as “Puffin.” Big Grin
