Friday Art - Puffin


 This is my puffin ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") for Friday Art.  It is inspired by BBC Earth on free preview one weekend.  I caught a fascinating episode showing these puffins going about daily life.  They fly hundreds of metres over the water and dive deep down to catch fish for their young.   Wouldn't you know they have predator fish that often steal this precious catch. 

It is Good Friday, many Catholics eat fish today as opposed to meat.
