PUFFINS!
Well, sadly, I can't afford to go see puffins -- and here I am in Iceland. I would surmise, then, that you, dear reader, sure as hell can't afford to go dig the little dudes, then, either. SO!
Artist Tumi Magnússon (at least I think it was him!) told me about this site over drinks -- and it's smashing! You can CONTROL a super-high-res webcam, in real time, pointed right at a veritable puffin nightclub. Check the little guys out! Go go go! Ils sont tout foufou!
Now, if you can't see the little guys, just click the "Request Control" button and wait your turn, and then try to move the camera around to find them.... but there should be heaps!
Góða skemmtun og segirðu "hæ!" á lundarnir!
Oh, and my favorite quote from last weekend, courtesy of a fellow SAFN worker ... whose name sounds like "Inggi" but I probably haven't sounded it out right... This is his response to my complaining about some difficulties in Iceland:
"If you get frustrated, you can punch me in the 6-pack."
