Reading the Nautilus back catalog is great.
Galápagos finches, though, are also famous amongst evolutionary biologists because of the work of the illustrious Peter and Rosemary Grant at Princeton, whose work on these birds over the course of decades has provided invaluable findings on rapid evolution to a changing environment, as well as other topics.

Good read. I quite enjoyed it, as most of what I learned of Darwin's voyage was centered on his finches. I had no idea he was working out how the flora arrived on the archipelago.
