There are 14 species of finches on the Galapagos Islands. The anatomy of the finches has been dependent on the environmental surroundings. Beaks, for example, develop so that the bird can get food from its surroundings.
Charles Darwin had noticed that the finches on the islands varied from island to island. The picture above is of a warbler finch, which has a thin, sharp beak so that it can spear insects.
I took the photo above on a Galapagos cruise last summer.
