Don't shoot!

As Craig tightened the crosshairs on the Nikon, this little fellow knew there was nowhere to run too, he was 'bang to rights', guilty, no question!

I cannot believe that it has taken me all this time to visit the Farne islands. Puffins I just think are under estimated little characters who I just could not get enough of. Looks like Skomer is booked for next year.

PS Sorry Craig, with your background and the Puffins stance I thought it might bring a smile

"The Geneva Convention protects captured military personnel, some guerrilla fighters and certain civilians. It applies from the moment a prisoner is captured until he or she is released or repatriated. One of the main provisions of the convention makes it illegal to torture prisoners and states that a prisoner can only be required to give their name, date of birth, rank and service number (if applicable).To be entitled to prisoner-of-war status, captured service members must be lawful combatants entitled to combatant's privilege—which gives them immunity from punishment for crimes constituting lawful acts of war, e.g., killing enemy troops. To qualify under the Third Geneva Convention, a combatant must have conducted military operations according to the laws and customs of war, be part of a chain of command, wear a "fixed distinctive marking, visible from a distance" and bear arms openly. Thus, uniforms and/or badges are important in determining prisoner-of-war status..Article 4, Geneva Convention 1949

Chapter & Verse Craig!

Now and then life gets to serious and I for one like to see the Form peppered with the occasional bit of humour.

Very funny - and a good story to go with! On a side-note - it's nice to see him with fish. I have been in Puffin-clonies twice - and never seen one with a beak full of fish.
