Answer

FINCH

A finch is a small passerine bird known for its conical beak, which is adapted for eating seeds. The term comes from the Old English word 'finc.' Charles Darwin's observations of finches in the Galapagos Islands were instrumental in developing his theory of evolution by natural selection, as different island populations had beaks adapted to their specific food sources.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains the letter combination CH at the end. Words ending in CH are fairly common in English, so if you suspect this pattern, try words like CATCH, BEACH, or BUNCH early to confirm or eliminate this possibility.
