Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period?actually, I live in this place and I see the sparrows everyday. There were a pair and from yesterday I observe one more pair trying to make their nest. Their nesting have been constantly removed till I reached this place in May 2011. In fact twice they have brought forth the chicks and its lovely to see though many a times they are a good distraction during our prayer and services. So wanted to help them by moving them without any harm done. I prefer that they stay with us..because they are innocent and harmless. we have a few love birds and they have their meals from them...so its not a problem but the second pair have begun to make their nest and I do not want it to be removed. even if removed got to be done carefully. I like them flying around and chirping around and around and around. Help requested.
