Project Puffin was started back in 1973 to re-introduce this funny looking little seabird back to Eastern Egg Rock Island in Midcoast Maine. Since that time the Puffin colonies have flourished along the Maine coast.
Lots of school children make the pilgrimage by boat every year to see the Puffins. I've been a few years as a chaperone. The Puffins are small, with a black and white coat, orange webbed feet, and a colorful orange, red, black beak. It was fun to see them all.
You can catch all the activities of the Puffins on the Puffin Cam . . when the weather turns a little warmer here:

Puffins are very common in some parts of Iceland and very popular with tourists. Personally I never liked that bird for some reason.

There is actually a Puffins cereal, and you could collect the box tops to "adopt" your own puffin.
