    Why is the word bird required? A kiwi is a kiwi, it’s literally the name of the animal. You don’t say pigeon bird?

      Because the word Kiwi refers to other things.

      A fruit, people from New Zealand, etc.

      Hey, I saw a Black out on my lawn, eating worms. I banged on the window and scared him off though.
