Norway's
national bird, Dipper,
are a scarce autumn and winter migrant in Øygarden.
They have been heard singing in March which may indicate that they also
breed here from time to time. However, they are a common enough species
in the Bergen area - including Gullfjell.
They are also very much a feature of birding in Engerdal,
Hedmark.

There are some double records here and some repeat sightings of the
same individual - but this still gives a good idea of when this species
turns up.
