The American Dipper stands on a rock in a stream, bobbing up and down on its long legs - "dipping" - hence the name. But watch! This nondescript bird steps off a small boulder right into the torrent, and begins to peer under water. What the American Dipper might lack in bright color it more than surpasses with amazing aquatic abilities. Watch the video of a dipper fighting the current – below. You can learn more about river restoration and protection at American Rivers. Learn more at BirdNote.org.
