Puffin, Shiant Islands

 
In this National Geographic photo, dapper black-and-white razorbills (at right) and bright-beaked puffins (at left and in air) find a haven on the Shiant Islands, just a few miles southeast of Lewis, Scotland. Nearly 8,000 razorbills and more than 200,000 puffins are estimated to use these islands as their breeding grounds each year.
