Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period?At our locality earlier there were very few sparrows, since last 2 years our family and me took task of conserving sparrows by providing them food, place, sparrow nests, adequate water also ensuring growing of more trees in the locality. We now see many sparrows and even other new birds are coming to our locaility and In my house one can always hear the chirpy sounds of sparrows and other birds.
