Vasudha Colony, Alto St Cruz Bambolim Goa
Usually see a group of house sparrows busy scouting for food grains around ground floor and many of the balconies with potted plants and kitchen utility spaces. Saw a nest, now unused neatly tucked away behind an electricity junction box in the staircase wall of my studio/ colony building.

Dukle Residency, St Inez, Panaji Santa Inez Panaji Goa
I often see sparrows hopping around the ground floor residences picking grains of food and other times picking out nesting material like broom fiber. Its also interesting to see many sparrows flying to the box grills lining many upper floor windows, scouting for crevices around AC units fitted on the external wall perhaps for building a nest. Its irrititating to see residents often shooing or driving them off and completely insensitive and intolerant to letting birds nest. The same plight applies to sunbirds making attempts in a similar way!

Dukle Residency Santa Inez Panaji Goa
Our new residential colony abutted lush green fields and lined with coconut trees, banana plantations, etc so the adjacent area was teeming with baya weavers- more than 100 nos. busy weaving bulb like nests on the palms of the coconut trees. House sparrows were then quite rare compared to the baya weavers. We had pigeons visiting our terrace and the fields for rice grains during harvest time.
