If time permits, a 20 minute documentary film can be viewed which educates visitors about the success and challenges faced by Audubon and its conservation partners to restore and protect the seabirds on Maine islands. Exhibits such as a puffin burrow and an exact replica of a observation "hide" are ways kids can learn about the success of the project. Informed staff can answer questions about puffin watching trips. Come and enjoy the many fun, educational, and interactive exhibits, programs, and activities for people of all ages.
