When looking at results from the mountain area it is clearly evident that the spoon beaked bird was the most adapted to collecting the beans available in relation to the four bird species. The spoon beaked bird had a product difference of 58.75 between its closest competitors the fork billed bird with an average collection of 14.25 followed by the tweezer beaked bird with an average of 6.75 and finally the chopstick billed bird with a collection average of 1.25. Looking at these results it can be identified that smaller beaks with wider surface area prove more efficient in the process of collecting larger round objects such as the beans due to their ability to carry out scooping motions more efficiently. It can be assumed that within the next …show more content…

It can also be identified that the population of the tweezer beak bird in the valley will be of great number due to their beaks being the most suited for the toothpick pray suiting the longer skinner toothpick it could then be assumed that both the spoon and fork bird will shrink in population and in turn become extinct at quite an excelled rate due to their low numbers. The seconds most successful competitor, the chopstick bird will also in turn see dwindling of population sizes however a more slower pace due to the somewhat successful be adaptions it poses. However, in a situation of the tooth picks being the only food present in the valley area interspecific competition would eventually see the dominance of the tweezer bird with its superior adaption and in turn the extinction of the chop stick
