Well, you know, people may say what they like about Wikipedia, but it usually has some reasonably interesting details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puffin such as that the colourful part of the beak is shed after the breeding season. That's interesting. I wonder if it causes problems during the shedding part (causing drag while swimming, stuff like that).
Anyhoo. Puffin appears to be an anglo saxon word, and refers to the dried carcase. Sort of like calling pigs porkies, I guess.
More pictures please. (Not demanding; not me; oh no.) :)
