Dippers.
Pair - male and female adults.
Species: Cinclus cinclus.
The ecology of Dippers is intimately linked to river ecosystems, as they rely on them for food and breeding. Dippers are unique among songbirds in that they feed by diving into fast flowing waters and searching through stones and pebbles in the river bed for macroinvertebrates (such as mayfly or caddisfly larvae).
