Sparrows and their sounds are my stress busters 😃👍
I really appreciate your moves towards bringing back to home our chidhiya (sparrow). In our old home 🏡 (22 yrs ago) we watched sparrow to make its shelter. But from last 10 yrs I hvnt seen any 1

Host a nest ..create a condusive environment..they will definitely fly in
Nowadays we can hardly spot a sparrow. Good to know that there are few people who are taking the initiatives to revive the number of Sparrows.

This is awesome how can we buy these
Salute to you ma'am 🙏
Thank you so much. About ten years ago it worried us, my wife and I, that the early morning song of the Sparrows had dissappeared. My wife put out seed feeders and I became more attentive to keeping the bird bath full of clean fresh water. The result is that the early morning song of the Sparrows is deafening. You may want to see y video of them on KZread having a wonderful bath. You will find it under my name: John Mustart. You are doing a wonderful work. May God in heaven bless you for looking after these birds.
