A Puffin captured in mid-flight as it leapt from a precarious ledge at Bempton Cliffs in East Yorks. Not a very graceful bird in flight but I was fascinated by the birds ability to manouvre itself in the fierce winds screaming in from off the North Sea.
I appreciate your response to my previous Puffin upload.

good old Bempton... must get back there
Wernt you lucky to get this beauty
Excellent capture, great focus and wonderful expression from the bird
Paddling, flying and checking the camera. This is one busy puffin. Excellent image!
It looks like he's walking in the air like Aled Jones in the Snowman! Excellent timing
