Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | I worked in Netaji Shubash Palace and after lunch around 2 o'clock I along with my office colleagues used to pass that area for a quick short walk. There were a lot of small bushes (they were cut in early February, I think) and very great number of sparrows were there. Often I would spot around 20-30 sparrows and their chirping sound. Now only 2 months ago after cutting of the bushes, I am seeing a sudden decline in the number of sparrows but still I can spot around 10 to 15% nests there. |
