Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period?Hi, I observed that the Sparrows are living upon the Trees nearby my House. Also, there are very few Trees in our locality and suppose that's why the Sparrows are also seen very few. I hardly found the Sparrow Nests nearby my House. Though, it is good to see that 1-2 homes from our locality are doing activities of feeding Birds on daily basis. I also doing this same thing but not very systematically. I normally put a bowl of water outside my home especially in the summer season to get these birds ease. I also observed that in compare to Dove, the Sparrows are very few in our locality. I really wish to save our Sparrows, which is the part of our nature. That's all for the moment, please. Thank you.
