A kind of bird; a sandpiper.

A confection composed of sugar-coated marshmallow, molded in the shape of a small chick. The most popular examples are dyed yellow, the normal color of a domestic chicken hatchling, from the sound of whose cry the name is presumed to have originated. Various shapes and colors are available. In the US they are especially popular at Easter, and therefore also available in the shape of a baby bunny, which may be colored white but nevertheless sold as a "peep".
