Love these wee birds!
This one hangs around a tidal stream.

Thanks, I had to gain this birds trust before it would let me get within the required distance. After a "some time" it realised I was no threat. Great fun

AnnieMacD Oops, me again ![]() More info | Feb 06, 2015 13:03 | #10 These are fantastic! I love the dipper too but rarely see one here. Where are you located? As someone else said you must have been right down at water level to get the action shots. That's a great water droplet!

AnnieMacD Oops, me again ![]() More info | Feb 06, 2015 13:19 | #13 seall wrote in post #17418713 ![]() Hi Annie, I am located near Loch Ness but have visited the same burn up near Cape Wrath for a few years where I have photographed the same family of dippers, very possibly the same one. As far as water level, I was flat on my stomach crawling about for a few days. It's the only time I have ever got close to one. ![]() Oh, I'm not so far away from you over on the west coast - in Applecross. I might have to head up north to see some dippers then!
