| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | They were started declining in their numbers. Six to seven years ago I had observed them frequently. Since this village area was a very rich area in agriculture point of view, so it can be assumed that both food and water were abundant in their quantities. Also there were many trees and small buildings for making nests. Still it is a productive area and trees are also present, but they have been declining in the course of time. I don't know the exact reasons but something has taken place. |
