Birds are a perfect example of having adaptations that meet the need for food. Their body demonstrates adaptations unique to what they eat and where they live. For example, the flamingo has a beak that helps it filter the water, using its tongue, and eats whatever it gets. The spoonbill scoops up food in its spoon-like bill, while the pelican's bill carries fish. Water birds have long legs for wading in the wat, and webbed feet so they do not sink in the mud. Parrots have strong, curved beaks which are ideal for cracking open nuts and hard seeds.
