SAD 13: Puffin Party

Faroe Islands, 2016

No mass gatherings? Try telling that to these puffins, who gather by the thousands in summertime to tend to their burrows and raise their young (“pufflings”). You’d think that having thousands of birds in one place would result in a deafening, squabbly situation, but no … these birds were super quiet and orderly. A whoosh of wings and a puffin would appear, like Apparating. Another whoosh of wings and it’d be gone. Aside from that — silence!
