Puffin, Unalaska, Alaska , United States
Nesting Puffin

Species: Puffin | Location: Unalaska, Alaska , United States

Puffins are not easily seen in Unalaska since they spend a lot of time in open water. However, they have a nesting place in a cliff alongside a waterfall that can only be accessed by boat; there, crested puffins can also be found sharing the same location but in less quantities.
