Description
Two cheeky puffins decorate this glass curve. It measures 17 x 15 cm.
Puffins are tricky to make as they require separate firings for their many coloured beaks.
They are ever popular birds, locals and visitors are keen to get sightings in the short time they visit the islands.
The puffin’s distinctive bill has given it the nicknames of ‘sea parrot’ and ‘bottle nose’. Although it looks a bit like a penguin or a parrot, it is actually related to the auk family – its close, larger relatives being razorbills and guillemots.
