Question

A pigeon has a short beak whereas a woodpecker has a long beak. Why do you think these birds have got different kinds of beaks? Give a reason to support your answer.

Answer 1

Since beaks are mainly used for feeding, the variation in beak shape and size mostly has to do with the food that each species prefers. Some beaks are made for digging seeds out of shells while others are designed to dig deep into the ground to pull out prey items.

Short, hard & pointed beak Sparrow, Pigeon, Peacock

Long, thin & slightly curved beak Hoopoe

Broad & flat beaks with tiny holes at the side Ducks & Swans

Long, broad and pointed Kingfisher and Herons
