| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | There are two plots next to my house and there were 2 trees in that open space. few months ago on that 2 trees every evening more than 400 to 600 sparrows use to come along with other bords and sleep during the night time .Both the trees used to be completely filled with sparrows, I dont know the name of the tree but it was the one which is specified in this image http://in.lifestyle.yahoo.com/ch-i-rp-in-for-sparrows-.html
and every morning at around 4 - 4:30 am they use to wake up and make noise.It was so nice to hear that every morning as these two trees were close to my bedroom. But few months ago the trees were cut off since the owner of the plot decided to start the construction,from that day the sparrows had changed there sleeping place, I do see them in my garden in the evening time but the number has been reduced to say around 60 to 80 percent. I hope so they have found another place where they can reside. |
