4/27/2020 my findings on house sparrows
House sparrows are called old world sparrows because
they come from
Europe and a large part of
asha.
House sparrows are cavity nesters and decimate
the bluebird and
other native cavity nesters
populations by using potential homes and eating their
potential food.

I have found several nests and by continual observation have
noticed
several facts about their
nesting behavior. The female house sparrow starts
building her nest in
early april or late march.

Unlike some other species the female starts building
her nest before she
finds a mate. Some birds
pair up and make a nest together these do not. It appears to me
that they mate while the females are
in the process of building the nest.

to get some good shots.

Femail mail
As you can see the mail has much more distinct markings than
most sparrows.
It is very hard to
identify female sparrows so i had to get nearenoughth to the mail to see its splashes.
