American Dipper in tropical waters

i search this bird for many time, in Mexico the 70% of rivers are very contaminated, i find it at 850 msnm in a semicalid tropical habitat.

Glad you were finally able to successfully photograph this bird. You have a nice sharp bird here which appears well exposed. I like the rock and your bird is at a nice angle. The black in the background is a little bit distracting but all in all a nice capture. Thank you for sharing and we look forward to seeing more of your work.

Very nice photo of this bird that is always moving and hard to capture. Sharp, good composition and nice rock.

Agree about the dark blotch but really a stunning capture. Nice to have that background information too.
