Are Epigenetics Darwin’s Finches’ Secret Superpower For Rapid Evolution?
"Epigenetics may be how Darwin’s finches rapidly change their beak size and shape in response to sudden environmental changes, such as drought or human disturbance, in the absence of gene mutations"

"#DarwinsFinches no longer recognize the birdsong of conspecifics whose beak shape has evolved due to ecological adaptation... functional adaptations can lead to species divergence and eventually the #evolution of new #bird species."
