This nuthatch was quite the little acrobat hanging from the branch
I took over 60 photos in sequence of this dipper diving for food time and time again
What a marvellous little bird.Just wish it had been nearer or I had a stronger zoom.
it was swimming under water then popping up in a different spot.

The Nuthatch is so sweet Sheila I thought at first glance it was a ittle Squirrel or Mouse or similar, As for the Dipper, it must have been fascinating to watch, no wonder you took lots of photos! Am I right in thinking this wasn't your garden?
Sheila, amazing little birds, one I wont get on my patch!
not in my garden shysongbird(sadly)it was at the bird hide I help out with on the river in northumberland.
Warren I am in awe of this bird that has adapted itself so well to feed under water.It can hold its breath for up to 30 seconds I think

How lucky to get shots of a dipper! They're quite elusive little buggars here in the US...I've barely seen one let alone gotten a photo.
