Dippers of Finland, bye bye!


This 16 March 2015 video is about a dipper near its nest in northern Finland, trying to make its song audible as the fast-flowing river makes noise.

After 15 March 2015, not yet the very last day in Kuusamo; the morning of 16 March, the last day. When we were back at the dippers’ nest where we had been before.

As we arrived, a dipper sat on the wooden bridge. Every now and then, the birds brought nesting material to their nestbox.

Then, time for singing again.

Time to look around a bit.

And time to go back to the bridge.

Time to sing again.

A great tit called.

Two dippers on the bridge.

A hooded crow flies past.

A dipper cleanses its feathers on a small stone in the stream.

Time for us to say goodbye to these beautiful birds.

This video is about a dipper in the Netherlands.

Our plane went to Helsinki. There, we changed planes.

More bird photos from Finland are here.

  30. Dear Kitty. I wonder whether you would allow British Trust for Ornithology to use your image of Dipper looking out of a nestbox in its new Nestbox Guide? We will be pleased to credit you as the photographer.
