The sparrows were busy collecting food, building nests or feeding the young ones, unaffected by the noise and crowd below. Of course, they do not come close to human presence as they did in the past. Maybe they have well understood the evil plans of the humans, who drove them away from a beautiful garden city, systematically. |
