A state without the means of some change is without the means of its conservation â Reflections on the Revolution in France]
Maine is both the northernmost state in New England and the largest, accounting for almost half the region's entire land area. Maine is the only state to border only one other state (New Hampshire to the west).
Maine is historically the southern edge of their breeding range. Puffins are members of the alcidae family. Other alcids on the east coast include Razorbills, Black Guillemots, Common Murres, Thick-billed Murres, and Dovekies. The latter two species do not nest in Maine but are seen in Maine waters in winter.
