A hummingbird's beak allows it to sip on nectar from flowers. Also they can stretch their lower beak back up to 25 degrees in order to catch fruit flies while flying in mid-air
a hummingbirds beak is made up of 2 different parts...the upper mandible and the lower mandible. These can open a little bit in order for the hummingbirds tongue to be able to come out and lap up the nectar.
They have slender beaks so they can reach the nectar deep in some flowers.
