The discreet charm of the puffin

Two puffinsAnd the reason why we were driving south (past Sumburgh Airport, where the road crosses the runway with a sign saying "Ahead Only") was to see the sights of Sumburgh, the southernmost tip of Shetland's Mainland. There's a lighthouse, and a fascinating complex of archaeological remains (layer upon layer, back into the past) and best of all, there are puffins. And the puffin, as we know, is my totem animal.

For I shall consider the puffin - with much squeeing and many small photographs... )
