   From the town of Big Brador (between Baddeck and Sydney just off the
Trans Canada Highway near the Seal Island Bridge)  there is a boat which
does trips out around Bird Island.  It's well worth the trip if it is
done in the right season.  It's the only place that I've seen Puffins
and for that alone I'd recommend it.

   There are also Bald Eagles and Ospreys on Cape Breton, but there is
no guarantee that you'll see either.  

   Good luck,
                Peter.
