Nice spotting! I'm sure that Kathleen is correct in her I.D. suggestion. Would you please update the spotting information. Thanks!
Great action shots of a beautiful bird. It is a Marbled Godwit, rather than a Long-billed Dowitcher. The body is larger, the bill is slightly decurved and pinkish at the base.
