Discover the secret of a Humming bird.

This is a picture of a wonderful humming bird. This creature has the ability to collect nectar rapidly and efficiently through its tiny tongue. You will be amaze because according to one magazine I read, the hummingbird does not dissipate energy by sucking a flower’s nectar into its mouth. When a humming bird’s tongue makes contact with nectar, the surface of the liquid forces the bird’s tongue to curl into the shape of a tiny straw, and the nectar is drawn upward. In that way, the hummingbird avoids unnecessary endeavor by letting the nectar force itself up the straw and toward the mouth. They can also refill their tongue with nectar up to 20 times a second during feeding. Wow! That’s astounding and in that way we can conclude that this bird was designed by a loving Creator not by chance. Do you agree? ^_^. According to Professor Mark Denny of Stanford University, in California, U.S.A. observes: “The combination of engineering, physics, and applied math is just wonderful… If you took any engineer or applied mathematician and told them to design a way for a bird to get water from its beak to its mouth, they wouldn’t have thoughts of this one.”
