Print some funny little conversation clouds into the image where the birds have conversations etc like a comic strip would read.....You'll think of something.

I visited Newfoundland in 2018. Since you are getting tired of Puffins, I suggest you take a whale watching boat ride out of Bay Bulls or out of Trinity, or both. Obrien's Whale and Bird Tours leaves from Bay Bulls on a big boat. Trinity also has a couple of companies that provide tours on inflatable boats which can be a little more personable with the whales. A bonus on all of these whale watching tours out of Newfoundland is that you often see interesting birds on the way to the whales.

I also recommend you visit Cape St Mary's Ecological Reserve to see Bird Rock. Bird Rock is loaded with nesting Northern Gannets. I've never seen so many gannets in one place. The cover the rock and fill the sky. Cape St Mary is located at the southern tip of one of the southeast fingers of Newfoundland.

I have always liked puffins. I grew up in Maine and moved back for a time a few years ago. Unfortunately, that was before I got back into photography. I watched them but never photographed them.

I really liked the second shot of the puffin landing. You caught him just as he was about to land. Great patience on your part. Not sure how you can improve on those. Thanks for sharing.

No where did l write that l was bored with the Puffins.

I have been to Cape St. Mary's for the past three years. When I get off the ferry on Monday, it's our first destination.

I've done the whale watching tours at Bay Bulls and at St.Anthony's. A repeat is in order.

I have loved Puffins and been fascinated by Puffins since childhood, but have never been able to capture pictures of them that are as good as yours. They are marvelous; catch light or no. Keep up the good work. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for the kind comment. I hope you get the opportunity to photograph them in the near future.
