Ten species of Darwin's finches
show differences in beaks and feeding habits.
- The vegetarian tree finch uses its heavy beak to wrench buds from branches.
- Other tree finches (including the woodpecker finch)
and the warbler finch feed on insects.
- Most ground finches (except cactus finch) feed on various sizes of seeds.
Such variations are best explained by "descent with modification"
from
a common ancestor.
