Star-Nosed Mole?

My sister and I returned to Wachusett Reservoir of Sunday. On the walk back she noticed something small moving in the leaf litter. It reminded me of the gopher from Caddyshack. The leaves would rise and fall as the animal moved. Of course we just had to find out what it was so we peeled back enough to see a small rodent. My sister got a better look than I did and she thought that it was a star-nosed mole. I didn't take a picture because I didn't want to stress the guy out any more than we already did. The habitat seems correct but I've never seen one of these moles before so I can't be totally sure.
