The Puffins are one of the most numerous breeding sea birds and most popular with many visitors on Skellig Michael. In the early part of the Summer Months, Puffins can be seen in Large numbers all around the Islands. Many people come to Skelligs specially to See these little birds as they go about their annual breeding cycle.

     As you walk the lower pathway on Skellig Michael, you will come in close proximity to Puffins as they fly to and from their Burrows, giving you the chance to view and photograph them from only a few meters away in places. For this reason Skellig Michael is one of the Best places to See Puffins in their natural habitat.

 Here you can see a photo of Rabbits and Puffins on Skellig Michael. Rabbits were brought to Skelligs in the 13th century by the Normans. Most visitors don't expect to find rabbits living on Skellig Michael so far out at sea but they are there and have lived happily with their Puffin Friends for hundreds of years.
