The only sad observation is that I did not see a single sparrow, although there are a lot of other birds in the area.

After two years, on April 2, 2012, in my sleep, I felt I heard the chirping of a sparrow...
I jumped out of the bed, and behold!
I saw ONE MALE SPARROW sitting on the guava tree outside and chirping.
Really hope that I shall be seeing more of them in future!
I miss them so much!

There were these two sparrows who used to visit my balcony several times a day during. I used to keep some grains and water for them.
Couple of weeks back also i saw the same two sparrows but haven't seen them after that.

Every day we woke up to the sweet chirping of hundreds of birds in the trees out side our house. Out father used to say that the first thing in the morning they are chanting Ishvara's name!
They nested virtually everywhere: tree branches, between the glass pane and grill of the old-style ventilators, even the upper cups of fans!
Since the atmosphere was cool, there was no need for coolers or fans, so the doors and windows were lefe open for cross ventilation. Even the pollution was not there.
Alas! No more...

When I was growing up, sparrows used to nest in my house. In the near vicinity I remember there being at-least 4-5 nests (neighbor houses inclusive). However, nowadays most of the small houses have been torn down and replaced with large residential complexes. Although I now live in Dehradun, on every visit home I keep my eye out for sparrows and have not see any recently.
I remember that in 1988-89, my aunt, Shylaja Akkaraju was a Masters student at Madras Christian College. She felt that sparrows were declining (even then). So for her Masters thesis she studied sparrows in our neighborhood. I was only about 5 years old but I remember going door to door with her searching old homes for nesting sparrows.
