Darwin loved collecting specimens, whether it was plants, birds, insects, or rocks, and he kept doing it all his life. Even as a child, he was obsessed with beetles and loved exploring forests to find rare species. He also spent lots of time reading scientific papers and exchanging letters with other researchers.
