We have kept a fairly big open earthen bowl for birds to drink water throughout the year..during summer, we fill it twice a day...its a delight to see small sparrows sometimes bathing in the bowl:)

I have very good memories of my childhood, lived in Santhome, literally house sparrows lived with us, getting in and out of the house, they were part of our life. I realy do miss them in Bangalore.
Could there be any other reasons as to other bigger birds praying on them( not SuRE, just a thought)

I have been feeding sparrows since i was kid.But for past 3-4 years,I have seen a decline in sparrow number coming to feed. Earlier, it was easy to see almost 20-30 sparrows coming for feed but now i rarely see 4-5 sparrows. I have observed that the numbers have declined ever since authorities removed thorny bushes and trees like ber from the park which is situated in front of my house and replaced it with ornamental plants. Now its very rare to even hear sparrow chirps in the morning. I do occasionaly spot 2-3 sparrows but nothing compared to numbers found earlier. One more thing that i have observed is, sparrows are found in good number near my office in Noida, even though it is a dusty and polluted place. May be because there are lot of thorny bushes near my office and lots of sparrows perch on these bushes. It seems sparrows are very habitat specific.
