Except that ravens are a subset of crows, so I keyword raven and crow for ravens, but obviously I don't put raven for other crow species.

(BTW, and OT, the surprising-to-me reason that ape and monkey map to each other in iStock's CV [a particular annoyance to me] is because ... wait for it ... the Italian language generally uses the same word [scimmia] for both, and the CV has to be translatable into all iS languages!)

But in the case you have provided it is 'accurate' and not spamming.

I remember several years ago some photographer keyworded photos of a tea plantation and had keywords for every tea growing area imaginable in different countries. Also a pet peeve of mine is grapes as noted above. I have seen some photos keyworded with 7-8 different varietals because it was a red grape.
