Here's a Tufted Puffin running along the water taken during the boat trip we do each year during our Washington trip.

Nice shot from a boat Nate. Was this near Protection Island by any chance? I have gotten my best images at that location, especially during breeding season. You can get them with fish in their mouths then.

Nice action pose. I like your compositional choice to include the splash and spray and still leave the bird some room to move into.
