I'm reporting about my house in my native. About 6 months ago we could see just 1 or 2 sparrows... And now 7 or 8 sparrows visit our home every day in the morning and evening.... I don't know where their nests are !!!
It feels so nice when they come as close as 3 or 4 feet... They don't get scared and fly away... We try to make sure that they get something everytime they make a trip to our house...

If the sparrows buid nests in houses it is taken as it brings a good fortune to the house.
