Sparrows

["Tony Russell" <>]

My street in NE Adelaide used to be heavily populated by House Sparrows
which frequently used the hollow horizontal bars on power poles for nest
sites. Of recent years these spoggies have disappeared, presumably chased
out by Noisy Miners, which have also largely chased away Pardalotes, NH &
White-plumed Honeyeaters, Red Wattlebirds, Willy Wags, and Superb Fairy
Wrens.
I don't mind losing the spoggies, but the others are a great pity.

Tony.
