Sorry I couldn't get a picture. This is driving us crazy. It looks like a large sand piper or snipe with a long, skinny curved beak, but it has short legs and a long tail. The long tail is not like any sandpiper or snipe, I can't find it in any book. It was reddish and had thrush-like markings. Seen in Melbourne, FL Any ideas?
