But I havent seen any nests yet.Though I had kept a nest for them last year, I could not see any sparrows. But this year the nest is adapted by Indian Robin. Hence I also kept 2 new nests this year.
Apart from my area, there is an area called Sarkhej, where I saw a locality and to my surprise I could see lots of sparrows there. There are many hedges in the buildings there and people generally keep their homes open, which gives the sparrows a good chance to feed and are adaptive to the humans staying there. |
