10,000 Birds

When Daisy started talking about a family trip to Maine for the long Memorial Day Weekend I had one thing on my mind: puffins! Atlantic Puffins are easier to see, and see well, in Maine than anywhere else in the United States. Eastern Egg Rock is a tiny, rocky island well within site of the Maine-land.

Now, dont get me wrong, there have been some nice birds, and locations in between, but these two experiences are just so hard to put out of my mind. At Dunnet Head, we got to see a couple of Atlantic Puffins, a few Razorbills, some Guillemots and gulls. I found this little grouping of Guillemots, with parents, babies and even an egg.

Having shown us the bird, the boat, and the water, Fox then introduces herself: “Albatrosses, petrels, fulmars, puffins and gulls live out their lives along these transect lines; my job is to count them all.”. This is the story of Fox’s experiences on board the Achiever, the research vessel of the Raincoast Conservation Foundation.
