Q11. Would you like to share a story about House Sparrows from this time period? | I am staying in this place for last 10 years. Since couple of years we have been putting rice in our balcony every morning. Around 5-6 years back we used to see around 4-6 sparrows every morning in the balcony. However these days the number has reduced to 2-4. We mostly see the sparrows in the mornings and evenings. Around our house we have sufficient number of large trees and probably sparrows have nests there
One observation - Sparrows are shooed away by piegons and crows(using might is right principle :-) )
