A 20*7m lawn lined by many trees (lagistroma,cryptomeria,peach and cherry to name a few). The houses are 1 to 2 floors older wooden houses. I have often found sparrow nests in the space between my roof and ceiling. In the last 6 months I have come across 2 occasions where young fledglings had fallen out of their nests and eventually died.
Also maybe important to mention but there are no cell phone towers in a radius of about 20 meters. |
