Great shot of the Puffin walking on water with that big fish in the beak.
Small crop of top and maybe a little from the right side and you've got a winner here my friend.

Puffins (including in flight) seem to be a very common capture. This is a good quality one and I like the composition and the head on viewpoint.

Matt
Harry Eggens  Thank you very much Matt.

These wonderful small birds are captured a lot indeed, but one still needs a little luck and for sure a very fast AF on there camera to do so because they fly like cannon balls :-)

I just wonder how this big numbers of fishes could be collected.
Harry Eggens  Thank you very much Al.

Good question about the fish. Have no idea how, although I know they have to dive for it and sometimes come up with just one or two fishes, exactly they do it, but must be hard work.
