Puffin


Puffins are on the west coast (Oregon) and the east coast (Maine). Prismacolor pencil, Pen, gel pen and Pastels.

Thank you Kristin and Eva for the wonderful fun times at Paint Party Friday for so many artists.

I have not seen a Puffin in person yet. But I love the little darlings.

These past few years, the population of Atlantic puffins has continued decreasing, reaching dramatic cotes (more than 30% of them have disappeared).  Scary. . I would hate to lose them.

Puffins and turtle doves now as endangered as African Elephant


Turtle doves and puffins have been added to the international list of the world's most endangered species

    I love your puffin-drawing!
    We can only hope that we humans will be able to turn around the process and take care of the planet we live on!

    Aww a little puffling (a baby Puffin)
    I heard the report this last week that they have been put on the endangered list. We can't loose them!
    Just a short drive down the coast has a cliff face that is home to lots of seabirds including the puffins. We didn't visit them this year but I'll make sure I do in spring.
    Happy PPF to you ;D

    I've never heard of puffins, but I looked at the link you shared and oh, they really are so cute. Such a shame that all these animals are endangered....
