Puffins living on the Farne Islands off Britain’s coast have drawn concern that their numbers are declining due to bad weather and food shortages.
Numbers have fallen by 15% in recent years, and there is concern climate change may have affected the population of sand eels, which are puffins’ primary source of food.
Now, the annual puffin census has resumed off the Northumberland coast after it was suspended during the pandemic.
National Trust rangers have to check hundreds of burrows – their underground nests – for signs of occupation to understand how the birds are faring.
