#SnailKites in #Florida Probe #CharlesDarwin was right about #Evolution once again.

When #snails--the prey of #SnailKites evolved and got 5x bigger, so did the the #BirdsOfPrey:
their beaks also increased in size, so did their bodies, the latter 12%.

A similar adaptation by another species of #birds had been observed on the #GalapagosIslands.
