Sparrows ! They are welcomed in every house in my village ! From my childhood I saw in every house they have a box for sparrow to nest in ! In my young age every house had an sparrow nest but now that's totally changed and I too moved out of village now . There are less sparrow's now compared to those days ! I too feel for sparrow's ! Now whenever I visit my native place I think of sparrow's which have become a rare sight now

During this time period, i myself fed two house sparrows for several months. These house sparrows made nest inside my verandah and then i started feeding them with the pulses and rice and then everyday they would start chirping from the morning to feed them and would only stop when they have been given their meal and they also became familiar with all of us. It was nice having house sparrows inside my home and listening to their chirping every morning.

I move to tis locality in January, 2006. I have a practce of keeping grains and water in pots for the birds in the balcony of my flat, so early in the morning and in the evenings sparrows along with other birds (pigeons and crows) and squirels come to eat grains and hae a drink of water. Their cumulative effors destroy my plants, but I am a hopeless nature enthusiast and animal lover, won't give up the practice!!! Love to wake up to the sound of li'l chirpy friends!!!
I request one and all to follow this practice of keeping a bowl of grains (bajra or another suitable one) and another of water for the birds.

This column is most helpful to report what i want to! There is(was recently we took out home for renovation in Nov 11 and the pair had to leave)a pair nesting in our home for past 3-4 years. I have never bothered to observe the nesting cycle but remember coming home from office and the female flying in chirping loud for attention and some food. I normally would keep some rice grains on the fridge. At times if I forgot to talk or give the bird (female sparrow) some grains she would follow me to my room. Sit on the tubelight and make loud noise. Its only after putting grains (bread crumbs, cooked rice or chapati) that the bird would "mind" her business (of feeding her young ones)How she happened to be an attention seeker is another story. Once she sat on the vessel kept on burner for cooking. We were too afraid that she would burn herself so we give the grains the moment she demanded it. In hall, where i would normally sit and have dinner, she would hop around to have some more food. She would also help us by eating all insects caught in the cob webs, esp near tubelight. Though both parents took equal part in feeding the young ones, the male sparrow was more of an outside man, getting insects (larva) from the fields and the female keeping herself to cooked food/insects from inside our home. They would feed babies until we would switch off the lights (around 12 am or so) Morning the routine began with the first light of day break.
