I remember about 20 years ago when I had visited this place there were hundreds of sparrows on the tree near the market place. All of them are gone now. There are three mobile towers around this tree with in a distance of 500 mts. Sparrows need worms to feed their young ones due to extensive use of pesticides their population is coming down and people blame the mobile towers for the dwindling population.Sparrows have dwindled now a days as people are building RCC houses where there is no niche for house sparrows to build their nests. Every small thing adds on to loss of habitat for the poor sparrows.
