Dipper with young

Had a great day yesterday photographing dippers. The day was a bit marred when a dipper returned with a fish. What a photo opportunity!At the critical moment I was assaulted by a dog that stuck its head right between me and the camera with the sole intent of licking me to death...I was unbalanced and went down holding onto my camera...a great dog (A big one too) but a dipstick of an owner who did not see that there was anything untoward.

A superb capture here, Adrian. Well done mate.

Bad luck about the fishy shot. It's unfortunate that some others out there just don't seen to appreciate what we are about - but I guess it can go 2 ways.
 
You have captured a very fine moment. Good timing!

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian
 
They will be bigger than the parents after a while!! They are constantly hungry and your picture reveals just that. Great shot,Adrian.
 
Love your photo. The ones i know are ready to leave their nest soon. Maybe i can manage to be there.
