On this day, Charles Darwin set foot on the Galápagos Islands... 🌍🚢
What he discovered there laid the foundations for his theory of evolution, reshaping science forever. 🐢

For #TidesOutTuesday, I’ve seldom seen #sunsets as lovely as those in the #Galapagos. #travel #photography #ECK
For #RockinTuesday I offer this rock “bridge” on the island of #Santiago in the #Galapagos. #travel #photography #ECK
On this day in 1835, Charles Darwin arrived in the Galapagos Islands aboard the HMS Beagle. His observations of the unique wildlife there would ultimately change science forever, inspiring his ground breaking theory of evolution.

With 24 experimental ponds, researchers are studying interactions between giant tortoises and the introduced tree frog species. 🌿🌊📖 Read our blog here: https://www.darwinfoundation.org/en/news/all-news-stories/mesocosms-in-galapagos/
A planta Galápagos snapdragon, que estava em risco de extinção, mostra sinais de recuperação devido a um projeto conjunto da Fundação Charles Darwin e do Parque Nacional Galápagos.

For #TwosDay, may I present this pair of weeks-old #SeaLion friends tussling? I love their little wrinkly skin and big eyes. #mammal #travel #Galapagos #WildlifePhotography #ECK

Similar to Large Tree-Finch but with shorter, stubbier bill, Small Tree-Finch is most common tree-finch. Here are 2 views, with black bill (breeding plumage) and yellow bill (non-breeding). #birds #Galapagos #tanagers
AB has given #Herons&Egrets as today’s #BirdOfTheDay challenge. Living in Florida, I photograph these guys all the time (and never get tired of it!), but I decided to reach a little farther afield for this determined-looking #LavaHeron. #travel #Galapagos #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK
Large Tree-Finch (Camarhynchus psittacula) Islas Galápagos, © Christian Artuso
The Large Tree-Finch was difficult to see and is considered Vulnerable to extinction. I only saw them at elevation in moist tropical forest of Santa Cruz & Isabela #birds #Galapagos #endemicspecies #tanagers #finches

Woodpecker Finch is famous for using cactus spike or twig as a tool, but that is difficult to observe. I often saw them hanging downward & probing with their long bill (hence name “woodpecker finch”). #birds #Galapagos
Decades of monitoring will help scientists understand which species are most vulnerable and how ecosystems recover. 🔬🌊📖 Read our blog here: www.darwinfoundation.org/en/news/all-...
