The house sparrow is not only one of the most prevalent bird species in cities but also one of the most beloved. It's a little brown bird, about the size of a tennis ball, with black streaks down its back. The male and female are easily distinguished by colour rather than size. The male has a dark brown body with a black bib, grey chest, and white cheeks, but the female has a light brown body with no black bib, crown, or white cheeks. It is a gregarious species that communicates by chirping and chattering in groups of eight to ten.
True to its love for urban areas, the house sparrow has been observed nesting in buildings, either in fissures and holes in walls or, at best, in birdhouses and nest boxes placed by humans in their gardens. It primarily eats on seeds, although during the breeding season, adults feed insects to their young.
