Darwin’s finches may look ordinary, but they helped transform how we understand evolution. Scientists have even watched them change from one generation to the next as conditions changed. And despite the famous story, Darwin did not immediately understand their importance in the Galápagos. That only became clearer after his specimens were studied back in Britain. ________________________________________________________________________________ Planning a trip to the Galápagos Islands? 🏝️ Paul McFarling is a Galápagos guide and tour organiser with over 30 years of experience helping travellers explore the islands, wildlife, landscapes, and natural history of this extraordinary destination.
