Undeveloped area Sector 33A Noida Uttar Pradesh
Sector 33A Noida. This is an undeveloped sector of Noida and Prakash Hospital is the only permanent building in this area. On Sundays, about 50-60 buses are parked here which are used for ferrying office goers on weekdays to different parts of Delhi and other satellite towns. Here I have seen sparrows attempting to build nests on the rear view mirrors of these parked buses without realizing the impermanence of the chosen sites. These birds are also seen making nests in the exhaust pipes of the diesel generator sets placed outside the hospital. At least once I spotted a soot-laden half-built nest of a sparrow lying near the DG set, blown off by the sudden blast from the exhaust pipe during power cuts in the area. Clearly there is acute shortage of nesting sites for these birds. It would be better if we install some kind of nest boxes in our houses and allow these birds to build nests

We feed the birds regularly and as a result they are constant visitors (valued guests) into our house every day. Their chirping is a sweet background and just watching them is very relaxing. The few trees in the small green patch near our house is their evening/night haunt where we can observe them fast asleep.

We have plants and flowers i our building and that attracts them. They live in Chaklessia plants. Usually at 4.30 AM you start their chrips and that is the scene I enjoy. I want to know how we can help build artificial nests to increase their numbers. We have planted some fruit bearing trees like berry, Jamun, Guava & mangoes. They like to live in Bougainvillea plants as well.
