Shubho - Residential Ballygunge Kolkata West Bengal

I read an article about the vanishing Sparrows from Kolkata. I have a small backyard with potted plants. Started placing bird seeds and and water every morning and now have visits from sparrows regularly. Also quite a few other birds also come like Tuntuni, Moynas, Shaliks, Wood peckers, magpie (type) ghogoo (which also built a nest in one of the plants).
