During the rainy season, and just as the dry season starts, food is abundant for all finches. however, as the dry season wears on, the seeds they eat become harder to find and competition becomes an important factor in survival. when a serious drought lasting 2.5 years hit daphne, the only finches that survived were the ones that could find enough food; seeds that they could not split open did not contribute to survival. heavy mortality in a population means there is strong selection for heritable traits that individuals survive and reproduce. for example, g. magnirostris eat large seeds, and g. magnirostris can outcompete all other finches. the big birds and g. fortis fight over smaller seeds and water holes, but the big birds are dominant to g. fortis because they are almost twice the size of g. fortis. given what you know about g. fortis, g. magnirostris, and the big bird lineage, what do you predict will happen as the drought continues?
