Flight of the Puffling

A treat for ornithologists, the ‘flight of the pufflings’ refers to the time of year when thousands of baby puffins leave their mothers’ nests and try their wings for the first time. This incredible natural display takes place in August on the tiny Westman Islands approximately 32km (20 miles) south of mainland Iceland, and is a wondrous sight for all nature lovers.
