This listing is for a limited edition, fine art print of my original painting of an Atlantic Puffin called, “Everyday I’m Pufflin.”

You know…like, “Everyday I’m Hustlin'” like from the song. And my life. 🙂

I had the great fortune to see this little bird in person, on my birthday, no less, when I was in Iceland. I snapped so many photos, it was hard to choose which one to paint from, but I’m pretty pleased with this. I really can’t believe how cute these little bird torpedoes are. Watching them hop around the sea cliffs, with their giant beaks and silly little wings…just way too cute!

Anywho…

Bird in a Box subscribers: this is the bird for July 2018.

About the Bird

More about the Atlantic Puffin

from Audubon:

Conservation status: Major declines during 19th century were owing to over-harvesting of eggs and adults. During 20th century, continued to decrease at southern end of breeding range in both North America and Europe. Vulnerable to introduction of predators (such as rats) to nesting islands. An ambitious Audubon project to re-introduce puffins on former nesting islands off Maine, started in the 1970s, has been a major success. However, at the southernmost colonies, puffins have poor breeding success in warm-water years, which are becoming more frequent as the climate heats up.

Family: Auks, Murres, Puffins

Habitat: Coastal and offshore waters, open sea. Colonial; breeds in burrows and among rocks of sea islands. Favors cool or cold waters off North America. Outside of breeding season usually well offshore, even far out in mid-ocean. Nests on islands where nesting sites provided by soil for burrows or crevices among rocks.

“Nesting around the edges of the North Atlantic, this puffin is sought after by birdwatchers who visit Maine or eastern Canada in summer. At its colonies, the bird may fly back to its nest carrying a dozen small fish lined up in its bill, making us wonder how the puffin holds onto ten slippery fish while grabbing two more. Gregarious at its nesting sites, the Atlantic Puffin is often solitary in winter, far from land on the open ocean.”
