*:Visit Iceland this August and you could help to rescue pufflings - baby puffins - who get confused by town street lights and crash into towns when leaving their burrows to fly over the Atlantic for the first time.

*:Whee-er-er, whee-er-er! the puffling cries because he is hungry. Mama puffin arrives and lays her mouthful of live fish close to the front of the burrow.
