Puffins - The Sea Parrots of Scotland

With their striking black backs, white bellies, and colorful, oversized beaks, puffins are truly unmistakable. Their quirky charm is amplified by bright orange legs and comical red-and-black eye markings, making them one of the most beloved seabirds in the world. Often seen as a symbol for books and brands, these charismatic birds aren’t just cute – they’re also in trouble. With over half of the UK’s puffin population confined to just a few sites, this Red List species faces serious conservation challenges. #puffins #seabirds #britishbirds
