Sat by a pool in Kos at the moment and noticing all the sparrows all over the place, it is a joy to watch these little birds going about their business ![Grinning face :grinning: 😀](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png)
In the 70's when I was growing up there seemed to be thousands upon thousands of sparrows everywhere, along with all the starlings, thrushes and blackbirds, we seem to have lost all these quantities of common bird to Europe
.
I don't blame the climate changes for this (although our weather seems a lot wetter, a lot greyer and generally worse than it was back then) as it is warmer (so we keep getting told).
My blame is on population, or over population
We are a very small island that is so vastly overpopulated it has even become intolerable for the little sparrow.
We have built on far too much green land and continue to do so and it is such a shame
