Definition
A small water bird, especially a type of grebe or similar diving bird that dips into water to feed.
Etymology
From 'dip' (to plunge into water) and 'chick' (a small bird), combining onomatopoetic and descriptive elements. The term emerged from observing the characteristic diving behavior of these birds.
Kelly Says
The dipchick's hunting strategy is hilariously inefficient but works—it basically jumps up and down in the water hoping to startle fish right into its beak!
