Scientists have documented the first example of suction feeding in birds, showing that malachite sunbirds draw nectar using tongue‑generated suction rather than beak movements. The discovery, published in Current Biology, reveals a V‑shaped trough on the tongue that creates a pressure differential to pull liquid.

The research combines high‑speed video, 3D‑printed flowers, and fluid‑dynamic modeling to confirm the suction hypothesis.
