Fearless Ouzel
The American Dipper is a fantastic swimmer and agile flier. She is named so because she dips her head and body repeatedly. She stands on a rock or in flowing water, in rapids and waterfalls. She can live on slippery rocks right at the brink, so to me she seems totally fearless. I always look for Ouzels wherever there is whitewater!
This one is sitting in a big spring tumbling into the Metolius River a short distance along the West Bank Trail.
