How to get the property information from dynamic type generic list?

I have a dynamic type generic list and I tried to get the property information from the list. but it throws null reference exception. 

List<dynamic> dy = new List<dynamic>();
dy.Add(new { OrderID = 11, EmployeeID = 5, CustomerID = "ALFKI" });
dy.Add(new { OrderID = 12, EmployeeID = 4, CustomerID = "BSDEE" });
dy.Add(new { OrderID = 13, EmployeeID = 6, CustomerID = "VDSAW" });

var prop = dy.GetType().GetProperty("EmployeeID");

It will throw the null reference exception.

how to get the property details from the list of dynamic object?

Because you are using anonymous type. first you have to get the type of anonymous type.

prop = dy.FirstOrDefault()?.GetType().GetProperty("EmployeeID");
