On the few days when our village has electricity during the day, there is sparrow mortality quite often since they collide with fans.
However, they seem to have learned to dodge them rather well.
The sparrows prefer to nest in my room in the campus of the NGO where I work. They are really persistent, and it is a constant battle to keep their nests out of our rooms.
They used to prefer the space between our wall and the asbestos roof, but since we constructed an RCC roof they have taken to nesting inside the rooms, usually inside the ventilator.

There were always lot many sparrows.They seemed to find the space in our bathroon window(Between the louvers and the net frame) very convinent and safe to build a nest...we had two bthrooms and sparrows built their nests in both the windows..i have observed and shown my daughter and nephew first eggs and then chicks emeging from the eggs.
everyday one or two sparrows used to visit our home for food.many times between summer and rains they used to eat insects on our winows .the electric pole opp our kitchen window had three nest at a time on the supporting wires....
the sparrows used to have a dry mud bath just before first rains.it was the observation by the elder people there that it will rain soon and soon enough the rain used to make their presence felt.the male and female birds were very distinct...in colour size and even the chirps....

A couple sparrows tried to nest inside my house, they built a nest but i think because of my disturbance they have not laid an egg and abandonned the nest.
i see them everyday in the morning on my balcony.
