Eeeee! My boyfriend and I just watched all four of the films and are now all a-squee! Wonderful stuff :D

Adorable, aren't they? Of course in the Faroes they eat them...

Hee. Well I regard that information with a healthy dose of vegetarian callousness. But Phin is looking traumatised :)

Hehehehehe. They catch them in nets on long poles. Then they pluck and gut them, fill them with sponge-cake dough and cook them in a pot with the heads hanging over the rim. When the dough is baked it expands and makes the heads lift up and they're ready to eat! Not that I've eaten puffin mind - just not my thing.

Thanks for sharing the puffin videos. I have high hopes of seeing these birds in the wild one day. I've seen them once in a zoo in Indianapolis of all places. They're fascinating little creatures. I really enjoyed the videos!

See I grew up with them and find the thought of a puffin in a zoo a very sad one! Just goes to show that we're *all* exotic! :)
