Lobstah Feast

Birds aren’t the only ones fishing off the Maine coast. Lobstering is one of the most successful fisheries the state, and lobster boats are a common sight around the Project Puffin islands. Bird biologists on Seal Island brandish these tasty crustaceans given to them by some kindly fisherman who recognized that fresh food is often a rarity.
