This species, like other dippers, is equipped with an extra eyelid called a nictitating membrane that allows it to see underwater, and scales that close its nostrils when submerged. Dippers also produce more oil than most birds, which may help keep them warmer when seeking food underwater.
The Mexican dipper is classified as Least Concern. Does not qualify for a more at risk category. Widespread and abundant taxa are included in this category.
