Nice shot and the dof you used here is just perfect.

Just had a quick peek at your England photos Yvon. I'm glad you had a great, if wet, time. The puffin shots are magnificent. They're so cute, aren't they!

@Stu: Puffins are really cute and I'm glad that we had at least one dry day when visiting Farne, because that was the whole reason for the trip.
@DTW: Thanks, we sure did. I saw photos of the puffins on Farne and decided that I wanted that as well. It was great to watch (and photograph) them.

@Johnny Soedomo: It was really funny, because most of the time they are off very quickly with their fish to their nests (feed the chicks), but these two just stood there like they were compairing.

@MaryB: Thanks for your comments. If you have the opportunaty, go visit Farne, it is amazing. May, June and July are the months of the breading season, but June is by far the best month to go. See www.farne-islands.com
