After hearing about the American Dipper by the weir in Saskatoon from Guy Wapple I wanted to check it out for myself. I hadn't seen one since 2001 while birding in Squamish BC for the eagle festival. We found a few of them fishing for salmon eggs as they were being laid. This little guy was fishing along the South Saskatchewan River eating minnows. I wonder where it is now, its -40 C tonight and I wonder if it is still along the river dodging ice flows.
