Summary:
But, we do not install nest boxes at all the places. Explaining that sparrows travel in about 5km radius, they said that upon providing habitat and food regularly, the sparrows would start moving to all locations gradually. Nest boxes are installed at several places like Ukkadam, Singanallur, Perur, Podhanur, Madukarai and Chettipalayam.Sparrows use the nest only during breeding seasons and there are four breeding seasons in a year. They are planning to install more than 3,000 such nests across the district in future.Awareness among the public has increased, he said. They start using the nests only after they find them to be the safest place..
