<p>House Sparrow.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>These a few years back were the most numerous bird seen in the garden, but declining in numbers and for the last few months not seen although I see a flock in a hawthorn hedge most mornings in the village. This one has re-appeared this week and once with a female in tow. I think the modern PVC fittings and guttering on houses have reduced the nesting sites so I must get around to making a series of boxes with a "letterbox" slot opening to see if I can encourage their return in numbers.</p>
