    Early morning Belne Brook Dipper at Belbroughton this week & a couple weeks back. (Not seen a Dipper downstream since the start of August. Less Dippers/juveniles this year unless I missed them. Tricky to find due to the hidden parts of the brook).

    Not seen any Dippers along the Belne Brook at my usual locations. So I tried further along last weekend and there was a Dipper. (Thanks for the info Ian & Mark if you see this). It had a quiet sing & a feed. I then found a loud, short calling Kingfisher. Good to see & hear it. A different call...

    Maybe due to the rain last weekend there were no Belne Brook Dippers. So I didn't expect to see any yesterday, but good to see they were back. 2 Dippers, Belbroughton & D. Good to see the Belbroughton Dipper catch a fish and then it had a sing for 5 minutes before feeding again.

    Last Saturday I was amazed an Otter swam past in the Belne Brook. Especially after seeing one the day before at the River Rea. The weekend before I thought I heard Kingfishers calling.
