Dippers, again

Well it all seems very quiet on the birding front of late. This morning I went out with high hopes of seeing many different varieties, but struggled to find anything out of the ordinary. I did manage to come across more Dippers though. So I spent most of my time trying to photograph these again. I realise my last post was about Dippers too, but they're not easy to capture, so I make the most of it when I do. Here are a few of my shots.

  3. Well, I for one am with you all the way on this particular species. They're adorable, and if you say they're a bit difficult to capture in a perfect pose, then...by all means, keep showing us these. I like 'em a lot. Especially their multi-colored bodies.

    Thanks for linking up this week at the Bird D'Pot.

  16. Splendid pictures of a splendid bird! I saw my first ever Dipper as a kid on the Bristol Avon near Bath - not really a prime location!
