Darwin observed that rheas, ostriches, and emus, despite being different species, exhibited similar adaptations suited to their respective environments. He noted variations in their size, habitat preferences, and behaviors, which reflected their evolutionary divergence. This pattern of variation highlighted the concept of adaptive radiation, where species evolve distinct traits in response to different ecological niches while sharing a common ancestry.

In what way were Darwin's observations regarding living things and fossils and his observations about ostriches important?
Darwin's observations regarding ostriches led him to the theory of Evolution. For example, when he visited one part of Argentina, he noticed that the ostriches were similar, not the same, to ostriches from another region of Argentina. The fossil record also mimicked this loosely. Thus, Darwin began to look for a viable theory that could answer this. Hence, the theory of Evolution was born, which made the scientific explanation for life as we know it today. I hope this answers your question.

Why was variation the weakest concept in Darwin's theory?
Variation?!?! That was an obvious observation of naturalists that opposed Darwin's concepts totally. Unless you mean the heritability that leads to variation? Explaining that variation was the problem. Creationists of the time explained this by positing god's whimsy in designing his species, but this was shown to be nonsense as natural processes are at work in variation and this can be shown experimentally. The concept of natural selection explained how that natural variation was selected on beneficial traits. What Darwin did not understand is how that variation was passed on to progeny. His explanation was wrong.
