Rare Puffin Spotted Off New Hampshire | Concord News
Description
A rare Atlantic puffin, usually found far north, was spotted flying near Rye’s Star Island in New Hampshire this July — sparking a rare bird alert. Experts believe the bird, likely young and unpaired, traveled south in search of food, possibly after a failed nesting attempt. Once nearly hunted to extinction along the Northeast coast, puffins are now rebounding thanks to conservation efforts — but establishing permanent colonies in New Hampshire remains unlikely due to habitat and historical factors.
