Darwin had a somewhat eclectic education; he started out being trained in medicine, then moved to theology with natural history being a hobby. During his journey on the Beagle he described himself as a geologist; he'd been strongly influenced by Lyell's Principia Geologica and was seeing the world through a geologist's eye. His shipmates called him "Philosopher". Before the publication of The Origin of the Species, Darwin did some research on barnicles - this was partly to establish himself as a "serious" scientist - he was considered an authority on barnicles. After the publication of Origin, he was widely considered a naturalist and has been ever since.
