The only other bird I can think of with a long curved bill is a curlew, it wasn't an Avocet, as in the pics, so idk.

in terms of shape think platypus. I've been through all the pictures of native TN birds and it's not in there. So I'm guessing it's migratory.

Could the bird be an escapee from someones house?

That's one weird bird! I'm going to have to do some research.
 
It had some coloring in the wings but I couldn't make it out. The only place I ever see it is on my roof. It's as though he peers over the peak to see if I'm there. I've only seen the whole bird once. He was standing on the peak when I walked up the stairs, and really too far without my glasses.

I have a ton of blue jays, cardinals, robins and many other birds I can't identify visiting now. They usually stick around until the middle of Jan then go further south. They'll visit again in late march/early april, but only stay for a day or two.
 
Well the only thing I know of that has a duckbilled or spoonbilled appearance and is small like you say, is an Asiatic species. The spoonbilled sandpiper. Here's some pics!
