past the docks, past the school, golf

16:02

course their mom eats naughty children past

16:04

the piece of lava that looks like

16:06

a puffin but is not driving down

16:09

through the golf course past the schools,

16:11

the golf course I feel like we're

16:13

never going to a public past the

16:16

soccer ball, the golf course soccer ball,

16:18

16:33

o'clock in the morning this

16:42

is all about patience it's just

16:44

being patient and enjoying

16:46

the walk enjoying the smell

16:51

we're trying to enjoy it at least and

16:54

then out of nowhere we

16:58

see it it

17:04

tries to run but it has nowhere to

17:06

go it's hemmed in by concrete walls and

17:08

so we all go sprinting toward

17:13

this teeny panicking blob of

17:15

feathers and Tristy lunges at

17:17

it and just catches it with his

17:19

bare hands hi

17:25

and here it is a real live

17:27

17:38

long sharp pointy beak

17:42

17:53

being rescued really

17:56

flapping the

17:58

puffling has some fuzzy grade What

20:05

can AI teach humans about whale

20:08

song? Using

20:10

AI from Google Cloud, biologists can detect humpback

20:12

whale song in over 170,000 hours

20:16

of underwater acoustic data, helping

20:18

scientists predict the presence of humpbacks, study

20:21

their behaviors, patterns, and populations like

20:23

never before. From

20:26

ecology to enterprise, learn how AI from

What's my subscription to the New York Times have me

20:37

doing this week? Preparing a

20:39

strawberry pretzel pie, solving

20:42

spelling bee with no hints, planning

20:44

a trip to one of the 52 best places

20:46

to go, getting to

20:49

the bottom of the big pants trend, and

20:51

I'm finally replacing my vacuum with a recommendation

20:53

I can trust. How

20:55

will your subscription to the Times have you do? Why

20:58

not find out with generous welcome offers

21:00

that include a seven-day free trial. Go

21:03

to nytimes.com/free trial. Our

21:14

friend Tristie had to go to Reykjavik

21:17

on band business, so he

21:19

called in some backup to help us. Okay,

21:22

so tour guide mode

21:24

activated. His

21:26

friend Arnar. My name is Arnar. Arrrrrnar.

21:30

Arrrrrnar, yeah, it's probably a little hard

21:32

to roll the Arrrrrs, right? I think

21:34

I'm just going to say Arnar, and

21:36

I'm sorry to him. Tristie and me,

21:38

we are best

21:40

friends. Arnar and Tristie

21:42

are in a band together. Do you sing too,

21:44

or are you...? Oh yeah, me

21:47

and Tristie we do joint guitar

21:49

and vocals, and I

21:51

always say vocals because it's not really

21:53

singing. Can you do the

21:55

Arrrrrr? Yeah!

32:00

rescue center where every

32:02

puffling season scientists weigh, measure,

32:05

and tag the baby birds.

32:08

And we hand him our perfect little puffling. Let's

32:10

have a look at your guy. Weigh it. Right

32:13

out of the gate, he's

32:15

a bit of a downer. Does he look

32:17

smaller to you? Yeah, when you grab it on

32:19

him, you feel like his muscles are slim. Dr.

32:23

Hansen tells us that this year's pufflings

32:25

were late, which was why it was so

32:27

hard to find them at first. And they're

32:29

also dangerously small. Tell him immediately when

32:31

you do it. And even though our

32:33

little bird is a little underweight. So,

32:36

we can go and release your friend or

32:39

you can do... He offers to help us

32:41

release it up near some cliffs where he's

32:43

been conducting puffin research. There's

32:45

a dominant direction here. There's

32:49

one. Oh,

32:53

these cliffs are really steep. Dr.

32:56

Hansen takes us up a terrifyingly

32:58

narrow little sheep trail. The

33:04

first puffin hunter, he fell to his death

33:06

on that slope there, down on the edge.

33:10

But he doesn't seem worried at all about

33:12

falling. Have you ever fallen down?

33:16

No, I'm still alive. I

33:19

brought along a six-pack of beer because it

33:21

had puffins on the label. Have a seat.

33:23

Nothing like a beer in a field. They

33:29

are flying really close, huh? So close.

33:31

What do you think? I love it. All

33:34

around us, there are adult puffins

33:37

popping in and out of their burrows, hopping

33:39

around in the grass, flying in and out of

33:41

the water, swooping right over

33:43

us with beaks full of tiny fish.

33:46

There's one. Yeah, just popped out. God,

33:50

they're so funny. They

33:53

work so hard to fly. Yeah,

33:56

they beat their wings by 10 hertz, I think.
