Puffin brining in food

Photographed by Joanne Mahy

I went to the small island of Skomer off the Pembrokeshire coast of Wales UK. I spent 4 nights nights there, giving lots of opportunity to take these shots. To maintain flight, the wings need to beat very rapidly at a rate of several times each second and it can travel at 80 km (50 mi) per hour.
