I just noticed that it is standing on one foot. Which makes it all the more cuter!

i have lots. But I always liked to see them building a nest. The tiny baby sparrows and their attempts at flying. Mom's feeding the babies. Chirping. it just seemed like usual stuff while I was growing up. But now it has become a cherished memory and i feel very fortunate to have had them in my life. The stage when they first attempt to leave the nest is so adorable.

I used have a male and female sparrow staying in the balcony of my house..They wld disappear in the morning and come back only in the evening but they had a group of their cousins who visited a small pomogranate tree in my garden me and my sister never got tired of watching them..they sometimes raided my house for grains but, it was always fun to watch them.. and out of the blue all of them just disappeared... I miss those days !.. Wht is yours, Emma ??
