| Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | We live(d) in a farm house, near a man-made pond with livestocks and poultry. The area was always frequented with sparrows, Indian Robin, Red vented Bulbul, all day due to the always available food and water - that we had kept in the open. Surprisingly, all of the above birds (including our poultry) never fought with each other and were happilly helping out each other, if needed. Sparrow Nests were located a little far though I have seldom seen eggs. The population would rise during the sunny times and be limited otherwise. |
