Darwin observed differences in the beaks of the finches in the Galapagox island. Though, the finches were smilar in sound and nesting habit, they showed differences in beak and food habits, Insectivoures finches have small beaks, cactus feeding finches have long and sharp beaks etc. So, Darwin concluded that they evolved from commopn ancestors.
