Pay close attention to the video Wired Science published today and where we can see the hummingbirds drink , something that was not entirely clear so far. These small birds have the ability to move the wings at high speed, allowing them to eat and drink without being completely inns, the speed with which the wings can move up to 90 wing beats per second. They are also called hummingbirds as they feed on nectar from flowers, but the way they did was not entirely clear. It was thought that once introduced the bill in the place where this was stored fluid was aspirated by capillary action , but the video we have at the right shows how hummingbirds actually drink. This video shows how hummingbirds use their tongues to catch the liquid, turning his tongue around to catch the maximum amount. Alejandro Rico Guevara at the University of Connecticut said he was impressed when he first saw this video. In the high-speed video you can see how this happens, but there are still some mysteries around the feeding mode of these small birds, such as how to swallow with.
But hope is not a mystery for a long time, since Rico Guevara is working to resolve this doubt and you want to use a small X-ray machine that allows them to make a 3D image to find out, which would also help to visualize best tongue movements.
Something very interesting and if available may also have implications in our daily lives, as indicated by Alejandro Rico Guevara, fully knowing how the hummingbirds feed could allow engineers to perform better or sponge mops. A fact which I find very surprising as normally industrialize any idea that comes from nature that we can be helpful.
