The average beak depth before the drought was 9.65mm. During and after the drought it was 10.71mm \

Reasoning
The reason the beak depth is different is because the finch had 2 food sources before the drought. The Portulaca was a soft plant that had seeds that were easy to get to, this was the finches main source of food. The other plant was the Tribulus. This plant had seeds that were hard to get into. During the drought only the Tribulus survived along with the birds who figured out how to eat the seeds.]]> 2021-02-03 15:54:24 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159425713 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159463616 Evidence
The average rainfall before the drought(1976) was 130mm. During the drought(1977) the average rainfall was only 20mm. After the drought(1978) the average rainfall was 540mm

Reasoning 
This shows how much rainfall the island of Daphne Major got before, during, and after the drought. ]]> 2021-02-03 16:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159463616 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159491140 Evidence
The Portulaca during the brought was averaging 3 per square meter. The Tribulus during the drought was averaging 7.33 per square meter.

Reasoning
The Portulaca was the finches main food source before the drought and the birds that did not adapt to the Portulaca plant dying off died. The ones that adapted and starting eating the Tribulus survived the drought. ]]> 2021-02-03 16:05:22 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159491140 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159557951 2021-02-03 16:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159557951 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159566910 2021-02-03 16:17:43 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159566910 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159576659 2021-02-03 16:19:11 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159576659 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159584859 2021-02-03 16:20:31 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159584859 camdennewsom25 https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159600671 2021-02-03 16:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/camdennewsom25/hdo2zqar7n5pfzy0/wish/1159600671
