At Bempton Cliffs, on the Yorkshire Coast on the east side of the UK, about 3,000 charismatic little seabirds nest. The puffin is a sparkbird for producer Paul Drury-Bradey and many others that come to see them in the summer months. But these awkward flyers with colorful bills can spark more than just an interest in birds and birding. Conservationists hope they can also spark interest in addressing climate change, reducing and cleaning up plastic waste, and other human-caused challenges that threaten their existence. Related Resources:Video - A Day in the Life of RSPB Bempton Cliffs Reserve | RSPBBempton Cliffs Nature ReserveAtlantic Puffin - More at All About BirdsCounting Puffins - Bempton Cliffs - The RSPB CommunityAtlantic Puffin Conservation in the UK - Joint Nature Conservation CommitteeConnect with BirdNote on Facebook, Instagram and TwitterSign up to receive BirdNote's weekly newsletterBirdNote is an independent nonprofit media production company.
