Ok, forgive me for being ignorant of NZ politics, but what is a "Kiwi". The only thing I know of named Kiwi is a small green fruit.

,,, the small furry fruit are called Kiwifruit. A Kiwi is a New Zealand native flightless bird - our national symbol - as yours is an eagle. I'd call you a Yank, you'd call me a Kiwi. Although you call the fruit Kiwi, avoid confusion and call it Kiwifruit.
