American Dipper: A Magical Mountain Friend

November 25 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm MST

With its constant diving, bobbing and rock-hopping in shallow rapids, the aptly named American Dipper is an unusual passerine. No wonder it evokes such delight when we encounter it. Coloradans are fortunate to have abundant dipper habitat along our mountain streams and urban and suburban creeks along the Front Range and west.

Our Senior Avian Ecologist, Jessie Reese will be presenting for Denver Field Ornithologists November evening program, “The American Dipper: A Magical Mountain Friend” on Monday, Nov. 25, 7 p.m. MST via Zoom. The presentation will explore dipper ecology and the adaptations that make the unique lifestyle of this chunky little bird possible. Jessie will also examine dippers’ distribution on the Front Range, including migration and movements from high country and foothills down to urban areas in winter.
