Aditya Rachakonda - India Bengaluru International Airport Bangalore Karnataka

There are lots of sparrows residing somewhere inside the airport. I'm guessing that they stay in the false ceiling of the airport. They are easily identified near the security check at domestic departures and in the Barista that follows. They seem to feed on the leftovers at the cafe. They do not seem to be afraid of human presence. They sat right next to my table pecking at tiny morsels of bread. A wonderful sight in all that cacophony!
