The white-throated dipper (Cinclus cinclus), also known as the European dipper or just dipper, is an aquatic passerine bird found in Europe, Middle East, Central Asia and the Indian Subcontinent. The species is divided into several subspecies, based primarily on colour differences, particularly of the pectoral band. The white-throated dipper is Norway's national bird. The white-throated dipper is about 18 centimetres long, rotund and short tailed. Order: Passeriformes, Family: Cinclidae, Genus: Cinclus, Species: Cinclus cinclus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Cinclus cinclus
white-throated dipper
White-throated dippers are found throughout the Palearctic. There are ten subspecies in the western Palearctic and three in the eastern Palearctic. They are relatively sedentary, and their lack of dispersal may contribute to the accumulation of local variation. White-throated dippers are always found near fast flowing rivers and streams, most often in mountains.
