Lazuli Kundu - Tantkol,," Nobodiganta"Birati Abason (near Birati Railway Station) Tantkol, Madhusudhan Banerjee Road Kolkata West Bengal

According to Mrs Ratna sarkar,nearly 4-5 sparrows are seen in that locality at the time period mentioned above(2010-2012). Among them male birds are more in number than female's.She provides them food (chawl,rice,dal etc).

Nests can not be seen there.As there are big trees around.Though not many, only a few.Sparrows can not make nests into the ventilators of the houses because of modern building architecture are not conducive for sparrows.There are no ventilators at all.

According to her, there are 10-12 sparrows can be seen in the same place few years(nearly 3 or 4 yrs)back.Then there were a lot more trees.

Lazuli Kundu - "Nandannagar Market" , Tarun tirtha Club Belgharia Kolkata West Bengal

Earlier(few days back) I have mentioned that less than 5 birds are seen from my home.But recently I watch 5-6 birds in the same place.Among them female birds are more in number than male's.I should mention that I have seen a chic(female).

Nests are seen frequently.There are some nests in our house.I have seen them making nests again and again.But sadly very few(only 1 or 2) are survived.Even now there are few chic in the nests.I hear them chirping. I watch their parents bring food to them.Sometimes I provide them food.
