What patterns did Darwin see during his voyage

He said that as giraffe stretching out their necks get longer and longer

there were variations in the beaks already.

The islands were originally attached to the mainland and as it was separated the animal life evolved differently from the mainland which is why it is a model of evolution today. Darwin initially noticed this effect.

The Galapagos Islands.

amout of food available

Yes, the Galapagos Islands were named after the Galapagos Giant Tortoises that inhabit this Archipelago.

Although the correct political name given by Ecuador (country to which these Islands belong) is: Archipielago de Colon.

Charles Darwin arrived at the Galapagos Islands in September 1835 during his voyage on the HMS Beagle. However, it was during this visit that he made several important observations that influenced his theory of evolution, rather than the actual discovery of the islands themselves.

Volcán Wolf on Isabela is the highest point with an elevation of1,707 m (5,600 ft.) above sea level. (Wikipedia). Once bellow sea level - hot springs at a depth of 2.5 km, on the Galapagos Rift and other volcanic activity mean that the low points are subject to change.

Evolution

The Galapagos Islands are a part of Ecuador.

The Galápagos Islands are located about 600 miles (approximately 1,000 kilometers) off the coast of Ecuador. Chile, situated to the south of Ecuador, is approximately 1,000 miles (about 1,600 kilometers) away from the Galápagos Islands when measured from its northernmost point. The distance can vary depending on the specific locations being compared within each country.

Different species of birds do not usually interbreed.

When they do the resultant hybrid birds are probably infertile.

[It only happpens with closely related birds, occasionally seen with ducks.]

Changes in the weather led to changes in the food supply available. Sometimes there would be hard nuts, and the finches with tough beaks would survive. However, if, on that same island, the weather changed and longer beaks would be advantageous, the tough-beaked finches would die out and slender beaks would dominate. This is proven by the extensive research carried out by Peter and Rosemary Grant from 1973 to the present.

King, and rockhopper. The puffin is also present though I am not sure if it is a penguin.

With evolution the beaks transformed into long beaks for eating bugs and short beaks for eating seeds

Well, actually, first of all, it depends on how you get to the coast and then, once you get there, it depends on what type of boat you are in.
