HOUSE
SPARROW Passer domesticus (m)
- This photograph of a male House Sparrow Passer
domesticus was taken in London. The population of this species has
crashed badly in recent years for reasons that are poorly understood.
Privet hedges are a very popular haunt for these sociable birds as they
offer excellent protection.
