The seabird equivalent of B & Q doing great business today as Gannets get down to some serious nest refurbishment.

Puffins are brilliant swimmers! Using their webbed feet as a rudder, puffins can dive down 60m under water in search of their favourite fish. ๐ŸŸ

๐Ÿšจ EU challenges UK sandeel fishery closures ๐Ÿšจ

This is a direct threat to our struggling seabirds.

Sandeels should end up in Puffin beaks, not hoovered up for livestock.

We need the UK Government to stand firm. The closures must remain!
