He observed and recorded the native wild-life including finches, tortuses, marine and land iguanas.
Surprisingly, Darwin also spent quite a lot of time shooting. He also took quite a lot of giant tortoises back on board the beagle to be used as food during the long return voyage ahead.
Remember that he didn't formulate his thoughts on evolution until much later in life. Whilst he was actually in the Galapagos, he was there as a naturalist. A Victorian British naturalist whose methods nowadays would be considered disruptive and destructive.
That's a reflection on the cultural and scientific norms of the time and not a personal slight on Darwin.
