First footage of puffins breeding in County Down

Since being introduced to Lighthouse Island in 2013, puffins have established a breeding population, with around 30 pairs now nesting there. Conservation efforts, including decoys and broadcasting calls, have successfully attracted the seabirds, which thrive due to the island's predator-free environment. The puffins typically arrive in April, and recent footage captured a young puffin being fed by an adult for the first time.
