A minor correction, master. The stomach is specifically referred to as a
stomach. :-) Gizzard refers specifically to the muscular enlargement of the
alimentary canal just before the stomach. Birds store grit (tiny stones)
there and use it to grind their food into a paste before it is sent to the
actual stomach for digestion. Dinosaurs also possessed a gizzard as do
earthworms and a few insects.
