[cobirds] Nesting American Dippers in Bighorn Canyon west of Canon City

Also on Saturday  Kathy Miller, Nina Ogilvie and Holly (?) accompanied me to the Bighorn Sheep Canon west of Canon City where we watched one American Dipper feed in the water on the other side of the river from the several anglers.  After they went on to the Westcliffe area I continued birding  in the Bighorn Canyon I located 4 American Dippers at 3 locations  with nests at two locations.  I photographed one of the dippers and one of the nests plus videoed a second one as it foraged for insects not in the water but on the shore.  I have uploaded these to my Birds and Nature blog.
