H N Sridhar - Coonoor Town Nilgiris Tamil Nadu

Here is a place i enjoy visiting time and again as you can find a large number of sparrows.

There is a green habitat all round the town with old and new houses where these birds can nest. As this is a hilly area most of the houses/place have retaining walls which have small holes left in them to drain water in the rainy season which also help these birds to build nets there.

The outskirts and the tea estates are a paradise for these birds for nesting and availability of food.
