But every time i go, i saw sparrows nest(at least 3) in the shop roof. Last time i saw many sparrows were digging the soil through their beaks. Its really nice to see. But after a week i heard many news regarding sparrows decline. So i thought of sharing this. Our sparrows still alive in remote villages which was not developed more with mobile towers and packaged foods. But in urban city like Bangalore(in our banashankari 1st stage) still i didn't see sparrow. Its really worrying. |
