It was with the Dunlins and about the same size, maybe a little smaller. The lighting was from the back so lighting was not good for colors. It was frantically dashing about, feeding in the water, even deep enough to appear to be swimming. Its head appeared smaller and it's bill appeared narrower than a Dunlin. It was not a Phalarope, which was our first guess. Any ideas?
