Storm blown puffin rehabbing on Cape Cod

An Atlantic puffin blew in with the weekend storm. The dehydrated young puffin was found in a CVS parking lot in Harwich and brought to Wild Care Cape Cod where it is being treated for parasites and other issues. In winter, puffins are out to sea and not land based.
