My family of sparrows wait every morning for me to feed them, they are very precious to me, about 10 years ago,we had no birds, I appreciate birds , I can’t imagine a world without birds, and every one should try to encourage our birds to thrive ,birds are great for our mental well-being,it very relaxing and rewarding to watch them go about their daily activities

When I was a boy I raised a sparrow, she was the sweetest pet I ever had. Even now, I raise lovebirds and every day I throw the sparrows the left overseeds and even have the plants growing that produce the seeds so our neighborhood sparrows don't have to look so far for food.

My palm tree is home to nearly 100 of these little guys. Every time I open my door, at least 2 or 3 will fly down and panhandle for peanuts. I love to watch them get organized and fight off the mockingbirds when they come to raid their nests and steal their food stashes. The will sometimes go to another tree and come back with 30-40 of their buddies and gang up on the mockingbirds to run them off. They're sweet little birds, but if you give them any trouble, they can turn into an army of fierce little ninjas very quickly, but when the trouble has been dealt with, they go right back to being cute little birds. It isn't hard to love and respect them.

It's just another example of human ignorance and arrogance. It's the same as in the 12th century when the pope declared cats to be emissaries of the devil and ordered them all killed. The rat population got out of hand and the fleas that lived on the rats spread the bubonic plague that wiped out about 1/3 of Europe. Politicians are basically just monkeys on crack with a case of live grenades. Someday we will all be extinct thanks to these evil madmen.

I've found a baby sparrow yesterday and it was not even eating but today it ate and it started chirping...I'll let her stay but eventually I'll let her fly ... Because I don't want to snatch their freedom to fly in the air

As you can see from my thumbnail sparrows and me go way back, the one in my hand I called Arrow and he is quite a character. Although being completely wild he has learnt to recognise me and stuck with me for years. I am confused that this video claimed they don't migrate as he would certainly dissappear during the winter months...but it at least makes the arrival of spring more formal when a little bird lands on your hand to announce it. If your lucky enough to live close to these birds in an urban area it should be possible to get them to eat from your hand, it took me years but eventually they all started to trust me and it seems when one gets the message your not a threat the others figure it out too. Wonderful and amazing animals, very cool, very fast and even playful when relaxed. Adopt one today!

Have birds of prey ever been introduced into London? In some cities they are used to control the populations of pigeons, but they don't understand they aren't allowed to eat whichever bird they find?

I have pet sparrows that now have baby. What should I feed them? Is it okay if they just eat seeds or do I need to add something extra to her diet

You can buy mealworm and they love summer fruits. They'll turn themselves purple in blackberry season with the juice they’re covered in.

Sort of mostly OK, although it does get a bit confused in mixing up the Passer sparrows with some of the American sparrows (in terms of what shows on screen), which are in a different family, and thus really quite different. But what is this nonsense about: "Scientists say these extraordinary creatures defy evolution." I was curious but nothing is said that even would suggest why such a silly comment would be made. Surely there is no scientist that would suggest that, because nothing in nature does that. Many years ago, I did my honours thesis in a study of the social behaviour of the House Sparrow & Tree Sparrow, based on the difference in their sexual dimorphism. Yes, we should learn a lot from what happened in China.
