House Sparrow
>> Dec 25, 2010
I don’t see various wild birds around my neighborhood. Most of them are House Sparrow birds. Indonesian people call this bird ‘burung Gereja’ (Church bird). I don’t know why we call it that way. Sorry for not sharing the clear photo…
House Sparrow (Passer domesticus) is a species of passerine bird of the sparrow family Passeridae. It occurs naturally in most of Europe, the Mediterranean region, and much of Asia. It has also been accidentally introduced to many parts of the world, making it the most widely distributed wild bird. It is a small bird, with feathers mostly different shades of brown and grey.
The House Sparrow is a very social bird. It also settles communally, its nests are usually grouped together in clumps, and it engages in a number of social activities, such as dust and water bathing, and "social singing", in which birds call together in bushes. I love to hear their “social singing”… Do you?
