Tufted Puffin (Fratercula cirrhata)

A new lifer for me. I knew these puffins were almost finished nesting on a well known rock formation but I wanted to wait for a sunny day and low tide. I wasn't able to get very close but was thrilled to catch a few shots as they flew above us.
Location
Cannon Beach, Oregon
Date taken
06-04-19
Scientific name
Fratercula cirrhata
Equipment used
Canon 7D II, 100-400 II
