Spotted Sandpiper??
I think this is a spotted sandpiper, non-breeding plumage. I found this at a local lake park in Savannah, GA this morning.

Correct! You've got it Phil. A nice Spotted Sandpiper (sans spots).

Hi Phil
The characteristic that helps me to ID a spotted sandpiper is that it constantly bobs its tail.
