Perfect capture of the puffin on the wing.
Love the detail and sharpness of the image and simplicity of the shot.
Maybe you could comment on the settings used - If you can recall?

Excellent image, I would of been tempted to trade a bit of the shutter speed for some more dof but you may have lost some of the crispness

I don't know how you bird boys do it!
This is a fantastic shot, you must have reactions like a whippet on speed.
