Medium sized residential colony with independent houses and apartments; next to Military Dairy Farm Satya Sai Enclave, Old Bowenpally Secunderabad Andhra Pradesh
House sparrows were in plenty here, there were acacia trees on which sparrows have been observed roosting in hundreds between 2006-2009; due to developmental activities, trees were cut down and sparrow numbers have been affected. These days less than 100 sparrows can be seen in a 2-hr survey in 2-km radius. Albeit, in a few areas sparrow nesting has been observed in apartments, old buildings, electrical and cable (distribution) boxes.
