| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | The area I am living in, find the people locally indifferent to ecological conditions. Chirping of the little birds are really heart warming and they are quite good also to be seen around. But quite unfortunate we do not have them these days around. Reason is the high rise towers, atmosphere warming, loss of trees and very high humid weather condition, compounded with high level of noise and air/sound polution. These little birds need very cool places with peaceful living areas and expect the residents to tend them carefully. What more to add. It is SAD. |
