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

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
