| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | Daily, infront of my house there will be 30 to 100 sparrows with their small sparrows. As there are more grains sparrows come daily and those grains. If we go near to them, they all fly at the same time. And i ran back to find where they go. Then i saw that they have built nests and have kept their young ones inside the nest. They were all so cute and when my cousin saw those she wanted to play with that ( even me ). And she tied an small sparrow. We were playing with that for a while, i felt that we should not hut, let's leave it independently and as soon as we left it went to its nest. In my cousins native ( kuppagoundanvalasu ) the sparrows were there more than 100 first. But now it is not there in all places and it is there only in half of the village. I was very amazed and enjoyed the experiencethat i had with sparrows.
