Best Answer

The variation in the bills of birds is enormous and fascinating. They are usually adapted to suit the diet of the bird. For instance, an insect eater has a long thin beak, a seed eater has a strong. short one for cracking the seeds. A bird of prey often has a hooked beak to tear meat.

Most birds' bills are specialized for the type of food they eat, such as thick, conical bills for cracking seeds, hooked bills for dismembering prey or spatulate bills for filtering water for aquatic plants and insects.
