The image captures a group of pigeons that were instrumental in Darwin's revolutionary work on evolution. As we delve into this snapshot from 1887, we witness the essence of development and science unfolding before our eyes. These humble creatures served as living experiments for Darwin's meticulous observations and analysis. Through their varied physical traits and behaviors, he sought to unravel the mysteries surrounding life's diversity and origins.
