Dipper feeding Chicks

This is interesting because those chicks are grey wagtail chicks. The dipper's nest is round the other side of this rock. I had my camera focused on the nest waiting for the adult grey wagtail and could hardly believe what I was seeing. I think this dipper is a bit confused. The nests aren't even similar.
That's amazing seeing her feeding the wrong chicks! Fav

How interesting, I wonder if she has lost her own chicks.

I wondered that too, does she have chicks in her nest?
