	Snipe A snipe is any of about 26 wading bird species in three genera in the family Scolopacidae. They are characterized by a very long, slender bill, eyes placed high on the head, and cryptic/ camouflaging plumage. ''Gallinago'' snipe have a nearly worldwide distribution, the '' Lymnocryptes'' snipe is restricted to Asia and Europe and the ''Coenocorypha'' snipe is found only in the outlying islands of New Zealand.
