White Throated Dipper

I went especially to try and capture this little guy and was lucky enough to find him down at the stream today. He is not easy so spot. Still hoping for a better shot.
Lovely capture, Jo!

Sweet little bird, and nice capture. I can see why he would be hard to spot.

He has his feet in the water - must find his food there! An interesting bird!

Beautiful bird, and lovely shot. You are right about them being hard to spot, I spent ages once creeping closer and closer to one on a far bank. Never taking my eyes off him, so I did not lose him if he moved. Just as I got nearly close enough, to take a nice shot, I saw two that were on my side of the river and really close and must have been in view all the time. Of course as soon as I saw them, they both flew off.

@maggiemae Yes, they love swift moving water, and walk into the water submerging themselves they are equally good swimmers as flyers

Nice shot. Some birds are more cautious than others, it seems.

Don't think I've ever seen one of those, appropriately named indeed.

I've never seen one of these. Great shot well done.
