The gizzard is the muscular digestive organ in which food is ground into small bits in birds. It is lined with tough, horny plates that act like teeth to grind up food, often with the assistance of small stones or grit swallowed by the bird. The stomach, intestine, crop, and cloaca are also parts of the digestive system in birds, but they do not perform the grinding function of the gizzard.
