Small Ground Finch

Small Ground Finch (Geospiza fuliginosa)
Puerto Ayora, Santa Cruz Island, GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
ECUADOR. South America
This finch has developed an interesting relationship with the reptiles, feeding off their ectoparasites. The tortoises and iguanas will often raise themselves up to make it easier for the finches to clean their legpits and undersides.
