After having not seen Sparrows for more than five years in South Campus, I was overjoyed to see these birds and not one two but hordes of them.

We lived in South Campus from 1991 to 2010. The whole campus was full of sparrows. They would fly into the rooms during the summer months and build nests inside the house. We had to often switch off our fans so as not to hurt them. They never hurt the kids who were toddlers at that time nor were they particularly bothered by by the kids crawling around.
One incident really amuses me still. A sparrow had made a nest in the stepne of our scooter. Every time that the scooter was started the 'mom' sparrow flew off the tire and waited patiently on the window for the scooter to return. We got so attached to the sparrow that when the eggs burst and the chicks began to chirp we stopped using the scooter till the birds flew away.
