I’m excited to share a 1-minute video and a few photos of the White-throated Dipper, captured at Solbjerg Engsø near Hillerød. This remarkable bird, known for its white throat and impressive swimming skills, thrives in fast-flowing streams, diving for aquatic insects and small fish.

The footage was shot using a Sony A1 camera paired with a Sony 200-600mm lens, which allowed me to capture the bird’s behavior from a distance without disturbing its natural activity. The video and images were taken at the northern end of the lake, where a narrow stream with rocks creates the perfect environment for the Dipper to hunt.
