I used a little alliteration to describe the nesting of a pair of American Dippers in the mechanical structure of a dam near Canon City,CO. I think you can easily see the nesting material in the mouth of the dipper in the top pic.
The two middle pics show one of the dippers feeding on the base of the dam. The third pic is so classic dipper--head stuck down into the water where it searches for little micro-invertebrates floating by.
And the bottom pic shows the pair together--the top bird fishing at the bottom of a dam gate and the other gathering some nesting material. SeEtta
