Charles Darwin

Geologist, naturalist and gentleman. On board The Beagle with Capt Fitzroy on a voyage around the world

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

We've come to the end of Charles's voyage in The Beagle. What would people like to have happen now?

He could go round again?

[St Mark's Church of England Primary Academy @stmarksacademy1]

Such a terrific afternoon at @stmarksacademy1. Year 6 has been investigating the adaptation of beaks in finches just like @cdarwin.

Conclusions to follow.

What a scientist in the making!
Getting ahead of the game with absolutely fantastic research done entirely at home. This weeks focus is on Evolution and Inheritance. @bcw_cat @cdarwin

Hello @elonmusk - would you care to drop me a free blue check, and I'll start tweeting my diary again. Deal?

So @bookingcom are telling us they're going to charge us a late cancellation … for a booking for a hotel we didn't cancel but did actually stay at in Greece a month ago. My advice: steer clear of @bookingcom

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

No it isn't, it's just ignorance

The first sight of the shores of England inspired me with no warmer feelings, than if it had been a miserable Portugeese settlement

Came to an anchor at Falmouth.

I am sure the pleasure of living in the open air, with the sky for a roof, and the ground for a table is an inherent delight in man

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

Amongst the other most remarkable spectacles, which we have beheld - an active volcano

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

A traveller should be a botanist, for in all views plants form the chief embellishment

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

Other losses after a period tell heavily - the want of room, of seclusion, of rest, and lastly even of music

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

Many of the losses which must be experienced on a voyage are obvious such as that of the society of all old friends

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

Travel ought to teach good humoured patience, unselfishness, the habit of acting for himself, and of making the best of everything

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

No one would guess that this was the great market for the numberless oranges imported into England

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

I have too deeply enjoyed the voyage not to recommend to any naturalist to take all chances, and to start on travels

[Charles Darwin @cdarwin]

The Isld of St Michaels is considerably larger & three times more populous & enjoys a more extensive trade than Terceira
