Subspecies?[edit]

This is not a subspecies, it is the same species, or at least that's what i learned from a naturalist on Santa Cruz, Galapagos. The only difference is that the finch changes it's diet to blood since there is no freshwater. Dabreeze 17:07, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"This is not a subspecies, it is the same species" - please read subspecies. Also, read the references in the present article to see that a) blood is less than 1% of this bird's diet (averaged over the year) and b) there are several other differences in the Wolf/Darwin birds.
