Small Ground-Finch
We spent 8 days in the Galápagos Islands traveling to 10 islands, looking for the special birds on each.
We really had to work to find and identify the various Darwin Finches. The Small Ground-finches were seen on almost every island we visited. This male Small Ground-finch was spotted on Espanola Island.

Hi Paul! Just wanted to let you know I’ll be featuring this and several other of your Darwin’s Finches on 8/25/26. Thanks for collecting such a nice variety!
What a handsome fellow! Never saw an all-black finch before
Thank you both! It’s so interesting to see the geographic speciation from island to island!
