    　　For many years, islanders have helped the young puffins．Early at night in late August, children carrying thick paper boxes and lights hurry to the seashore to catch puffins．They spend most of the night running after the birds．They put the birds they’ve caught in boxes and take good care of them．

    　　The next morning the children take the puffins to the ocean and set them free．The birds will live at sea until they are at least two years old．Then they will return to the cliffs to build homes of their own for their families．

    　　Will the children of Heimaey always come to save puffiness? “Yes, ”answered the boy．“We look forward to it．The best time for us is setting the birds free．”
