Autumn dip

Autumn dip (Cinclus cinclus)

I tried to have my usual walk along the river to take the annual view of the autumn leaves. However, due to back and leg issues, I didn't get any further than that so just waited to see if a Dipper would appear. I'd not seen one at this spot for ages.

But there he was, in his favourite area. It was hard getting sharp pictures of him as he kep 'dipping', mostly for a wash I think LOL.
