The Project Puffin Audubon Center is located in Rockland, Maine and is dedicated to the conservation of seabirds, particularly Atlantic puffins. The center was established in 2006 and is a part of the National Audubon Society, a non-profit organization that is committed to the protection of birds and their habitats.

The center is located on a 7-acre campus and features a visitor center, a museum, an interactive exhibit, and a gift shop. The center also offers educational programs and guided tours of nearby puffin nesting islands. Visitors can learn about the history of Project Puffin, which started in 1973 when Dr. Stephen Kress began bringing puffins back to Maine, where they had been extinct for more than a century.

The center also provides a glimpse into the life of a puffin, including their unique behaviors and adaptations, as well as the threats they face in their natural habitat. Through its research and conservation efforts, the Project Puffin Audubon Center is working to protect these beloved birds and their habitats for future generations.
