Birds 07 - Sparrow

Sparrow Come March twenty two: and it is the World Sparrow Day, designated to raise awareness about sparrows and small birds. House sparrows are urban birds small and commonly found around human habitat, city or country largely dependent on man for food, dressed in sheer boring brown they breed round the year, invade houses and buildings to nest at corners of the ceiling. Their not-so-distant cousins Yellow-throated sparrows have much better looks, opt to stay away from human habitat, keep to gardens and groves find a hole in a tree to nest and lines it with grasses feathers, wool and cotton. Dwindling numbers of sparrows and other small common birds is a matter of concern, but are we doing enough?
