Climate change, however, may prove to be the biggest challenge: Around Iceland, silvery sand eels, which dangle from the puffins’ beaks as they bring them to their young, are in decline. That collapse correlates to a rise in sea surface temperatures. https://nyti.ms/2PNRFi3 pic.twitter.com/nhhwQ2BfNF
Should I not have eaten that one in Iceland last year?
@2STNYC uh oh
There once was a Puffin...just the shape of a muffin...I'm 73 and still remember this rhyme...sweet
I promise to not hunt Puffins except with a camera.
I've heard the American president described that way, though "adorable" is a stretch.

If we win that trip to Iceland we can go see them!
