Not sure what this has to do with flowers and humming birds evolving together. Please explain why if a population of flowers changes over the years that a humming bird population cannot change along with it. What allows the flower to mutate, but not the humming bird in this example of yours?
Why do you make this empty claim?
From your article: "The beaks of the birds have developed in size and shape so that they pollinate the flowers more effectively, while the flowers have developed in color and shape to fit the evolving bird beaks more easily, the scientists find."
So again I ask you: "Please explain why if a population of flowers changes over the years that a humming bird population cannot change along with it. What allows the flower to mutate, but not the humming bird in this example of yours?"
Two biologists studying the lives of hummingbirds and flowers on Caribbean islands have discovered a remarkable example of animals and plants that evolve to meet each other's needs.
Yet the theory of evolution states,
"Mutations can be beneficial, neutral, or harmful for the organism, but mutations do not "try" to supply what the organism "needs." Factors in the environment may influence the rate of mutation but are not generally thought to influence the direction of mutation."

Do you see the problem here?
No, and I'm guessing you don't either otherwise you would have mentioned it.
Evolution states that things mutations are completely random and "mutations do not "try" to supply what the organism "needs." Yet, that is not what biologist are observing. They are not random but spot on. The lock is changing and the key is adapting with no problems. It also happens quickly not millions of years.
Please don't shower me with your own ignorance.
Not all mutations are what an organism 'needs', nor are they spot on. They are random, but it is only the beneficial ones that remain in a population. Please understand that dead organisms have a hard time reproducing.
Explain this please. Why are all the mutations beneficial for both bird and flower when the theory doesn't support such behavior?
They are not. Some mutations are harmful and don't get passed on in the population of animals.
The mutations are meeting a purpose are they not?
Clearly they are not.
If you still don't understand, please let me know where you are getting hung up.
You can give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day, or you can teach a man to pray for fish and he will starve to death.
