Surprise!

I knew there was a White-throated Dipper along the river I was photographing at, but I didn't even think that I had a chance at capturing this bird. It is very shy, hard to approach, not very common and has impressive flying speeds. It sure is a vrey challenging challenge. But I was hunting the Grey Wagtails, so I was more focused on those. Yet, while I was waiting for a Grey Wagtail, the impossible became possible. The Dipper came right in front of my hiding tent and I was able to snap a good photo. I was very surprised; never expected to capture this bird by mistake.
