I’ve been to this island with its Canadian lighthouse, off the coast of New Brunswick, to see these marvellous birds. National Geographic might say it’s in Maine, but both countries claim it. The birds own it.

Puffins interact on Machias Seal Island off the coast of Maine. The island is a sanctuary for puffins and other endangered birds that breed on its rocky coast each summer. Puffins mate in the same pairs for life, yet disperse for the winter.
