I was in Charles City near Shirley watching a muskrat in the canal. As
the muskrat went into the weeds, I caught a glimpse of something yellow
and finally saw that it was a bird/duck. It looked like a shorebird of
some kind...almost colored like a snipe, but it has a duck type bill.
Any idea what this is?
Sorry for the horrible pics, but it was buried deep up in there.....

Also, if you are interested, I got the muskrat to give me a special
showing last week...he came right up toward me within about 6 feet.
Pics are here:

Thanks for any help ID'ing this one.
