House Sparrow

pest sparrowsHOUSE SPARROW
Passer domesticus

Physical Description
House sparrows have a wingspan of 6 inches. They have a body length of 5-6 inches. Male house sparrows have streaked brown plumage with pale cheeks, a grey crown and black bib. The females are paler and without the patterned head.

Distribution
House sparrows are distributed across Europe, Africa and Asia. They have been introduced to North and South America, South Africa and parts of Australia.

Habitat
They are typically found near human habituation, including city centers, parks, gardens, farms and fields.

Diet
House sparrows feed mainly on seeds, but will also eat other vegetable matter and insects.

Behavior
Sparrows are social and gregarious, and are often found in small flocks. Communal roosts are important for them. They feed on the ground and in vegetation, but will also chase flying insects in flight.

Reproduction
House sparrows breed in spring and summer and the untidy nest of grass and straw is generally built inside buildings or other holes, and sometimes free-standing in bushes. The clutch of 3-5 eggs are incubated by both parents for 12-14 days and the chicks fledge after 15 days.

Conservation status
Non-native/Non-protected.
Voice

They emit a series of chirps and twitters, strung together as a rudimentary song
