A '''finch''' is a [[passerine]] [[bird]] that eats [[seed]]s. There are many species of finch, mostly found in the northern hemisphere, such as the [[goldfinch]] and the [[grosbeak]].
The name "finch" is also applied to several other unrelated groups of birds, including the [[Darwin's finch]]es of the [[Galápagos Islands]]. [[Charles Darwin]] studied differences in the [[beak]] size and shape of several of these birds, and this helped him develop the [[Theory of Evolution]].
According to creationists, finches were created along with all the other fowl by [[God]] on the [[Genesis#The_Creation|Fifth Day of Creation]], as recorded in the [[Genesis|Book of Genesis]].
