Default Pictures of Puffers?

Hi Rance & Neighbors

I was googling images for Puffer Birds, but can't find any good pics. (& too many results were for the fish LOL).
Would you guys/gals have any firsthand pics of these adorable creatures?
(Your pics in the other thread were awesone, BTW, which promted this post).

We were lucky to see one, one time, while out on (ship's) deck on our last day there, and I had no idea what it even was then. These have got to be the most adorable little things!!

And if y'all have some "authentic" pics of Northern Lights around as well, feel like posting them, if possible? (I know, I'm pushing it hehe). Photos in books/postcards seem more "enhanced" or painted-fake, IMO. I'm a picture fanatic myself -- crooked, heads missing and all! LOL :>)


Cheers

Thanks!
Puffins!
No wonder I wasn't finding anything, calling them Puffer! <duh> :>)
Sorry for the bogus thread, guys Will look for them again when we come back. We were so obsessed with looking for those Bald Eagles last trip.
