    I haven’t seen a sparrow where I live for a good few years now; they used to be everywhere. I miss their gabbling in the evening when they gather to roost.

  • Ellen replied

    Thanks very much! Here we dont see much sparrows anymore too.
    There used to be a lot of them, but not anymore.
    So, now i shoot them in the Zoo :)
