Atlantic Puffin Close-up

Pictures of Puffins. Atlantic Puffin in profile. Atlantic Puffins are notable because of their amazingly colourful beaks. They develop their colourful bright orange bill each spring during the onset of the breeding season. In addition to the brightly coloured bill, they gain eye ornamentation, giving their eyes a clown-like appearance. At the end of the breeding season, Atlantic Puffins moult, shedding their eye decoration, with the beak becoming less bright. As puffins mature, their beaks become bigger and brighter with deeper grooves etched into the beak.

Stunningly beautiful wildlife photography. Our bird pictures are printed individually to order in high resolution with vibrant colours. All of our prints will provide you with beautiful wall décor for years to come.
