| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | We have not made any particular observation as such. But sparrows here moderately do good, we have observed many nests near our field station. We have made some artificial nesting place like small house built using cardboard, bamboos etc but the good thing is sparrows are responding very well, the house were occupied within two days. A pair of sparrow lives in our jeep shed, every day between 1-2pm both sparrows wait and some time they do call for food!!
Our best wishes to all citizen sparrow team and sparrow lovers, at last not the least "LONG LIVE OUR SPARROWS". |
