I found two American Dipper nests along the Arkansas River west of Canon City yesterday, both with nestlings being fed by the parents. I have uploaded several of the photos I took of the dippers and an unusual nest built into a crevice (instead of on a ledge under a bridge) onto my BirdsAndNature <http://BirdsAndNature.blogspot.com>blog and will add more and some video tomorrow.
With all the recreational use (rafting, fishing and hikers with off leash dogs) on the Arkansas River it is becoming difficult for these birds to feed their young. I wonder if they are having similar challenges in other parts of Colorado? SeEtta Moss Canon City -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
