Let’s stay friends.
Adaptation & evolution are intertwined not two separate discrete processes. National Geographic has a helpful page.

If you have some time read through the article I linked before. It will illustrate better than I can that evolution is much more complex than just a path from one species to the next. For one example evolution involves preprogrammed (instinctual rather than learned) behaviors like bird display ritual and songs, the patterns on butterfly wings which evolve over time without creating a new species. In general adaptation is in a single generation, evolution is change expressed over generations.
Happy to stay friends.
