Abstract
Annual counting of occupied burrows in fixed areas of seven Puffin colonies in Scotland showed that the populations there were either stable or increasing. A drop of even 30% in the number of burrows between one year and the next could not be attributed to a disaster as the numbers increased greatly the next year.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
