AtLANTIC PUFFINS
In the early 1970’s, methods were introduced to Eastern Egg Rock in Maine that helped Puffins and other groups of seabirds like terns recolonize the island. Gull management, the translocation of nearly 1,000 young puffins from Newfoundland, and social attraction through decoys and mirror boxes, were the primary tools for restoring puffins.
