A small African bird known for bobbing movements, also called a white-browed sparrow-weaver.
From 'dopper' (one who dips or bobs) plus 'bird', named for the bird's characteristic dipping or bobbing behavior in water and movement patterns.
Many bird names describe exactly what they do—like 'dopperbird' captures the animal's actual behavior, making language an onomatopoeia of motion.
