| Dipper in Dovedale |
I walked through Dovedale in the hope of finding some more Dragonflies or Damselflies. It was, unfortunately, too cool but I did see a Dipper flying repeatedly out and in to its nesting place in a river side cave. I settled down to wait in the hope that it would perch up within camera range. After about a quarter of an hour it returned from a food search with some prey and stopped briefly on a moss covered rock in the fast flowing River Dove. I fired off about 12 shots and was lucky that one (this one) was reasonable sharp. I had forgotten to reset the camera to give me a decent shutter speed. Not bad for hand-held at 1/40s!

It is not not bad it's good they are the very devil to catch........The hours I've spent and still can't compete with this.
