Stenny Vaiz - Manal Street Manal Street, Victoria Extension Rd Thoothukudi Tamil Nadu

I have lived in Tuticorin during my childhood days and then i moved to Ramanathapuram. And now i live in Chennai. I could frequently spot sparrows both in Tuticorin(now Thoothukudi) and Ramanathapuram but there is a complete absence of sparrows in Chennai. But the number of sparrows spotted is considerably low when compared to the number of sparrows spotted a decade ago. If i am asked what is my favorite bird, i would definitely say Sparrow, as i have grown along with their chirps and their sweetness. I am a proud Citizen Sparrow!
