While everyone has heard about House Sparrows, few know that we have five different species of Sparrows. Mohammed Dilawar from Nature Forever Society says “The aim is to bring all birdwatchers and people who are concerned about the decline of sparrows to count sparrows which in turn will help in conserving them. “World Sparrow Day is a celebration of our 10,000-year-old association with sparrows! This year, join us to count the sparrows in an effort to conserve them.
Counting sparrows raises a variety of important questions, including its distribution, how they are affected by changes in habitat and weather, and whether populations and distributions might be changing year to year. You can join the world this World Sparrow Day to count the sparrows &celebrate them by organising local events.
