Thank you so much for this video, been noticing a ton of sparrows at the bird feeder and it's so nice to recognize some I've seen and be able to identity and know more about some others from you!
That's good news. I think this will be good just to get people to look at the birds they see.
Been a while since you uploaded. Hope your doing well. Hope you upload soon i love your videos
Thank you. I know I need a video. Have done ideas. Finding time is a bit of a problem. Now I have a cold. Grr.
I loathe european house sparrows. The mundane singular sounding chirp of a house sparrow is another unique identifier, where our song sparrows have a much nicer calling. I found a .177 pellet gun with scope to be the best way to dispatch house sparrows when their numbers increase and they threaten my bluebird and tree swallows. I've had mating tree swallows in the same place in my backyard for over 12 years now and every year, its a battle to keep house sparrows from killing the young. Great video, very entertaining.
Thank you. I guess i forgot to mention that annoying chirp!
Yes make sure you can identify the different types of sparrows in your area before trapping sparrows
well said. I hope this gets people to looking at all their birds.
Great content. I’m about to make the cage you made a video on and so this is good timing
And I'm going to set up that very trap tomorrow as it seems to be house sparrow season. Snow on the ground. birds are hungry.
10 years ago I had blue birds tree swallows nesting in my yard and now i two sets of tree swallows only thanks to tipping entry on boxes and a lot of sparrows so getting an elevator trap for this spring for 2024 got to clean out my yard wish me luck!
EXCELLENT. so glad you are being PROACTIVE.
I am so excited to get a repeating trap soon as the only birds that I see here in the city are pigeons, starlings and house sparrows with the rare robin and mourning dove. I hope that by reducing the population more native birds will come and live in the parks and gardens ^v^
I think you find success. Also be sure to improve your habitat with native trees, shrubs and other plants. The worst thing are plants from Europe and Asia which most are.
I love the sparrow as they are small and do get bullied a lot by other birds I feed but they will push back. I've seen them with other birds like blue jays and cardinals feeding side by side. So they can get along. I think what I like most about sparrows is they seem to be an underdog and are mostly dismissed.
what is "the sparrow" there are over 50 kinds of "sparrows"
Thanks for information. I always try and be careful not to hurt any domestic birds.
when you say "domestic" I assume you mean our native birds
There is a type of birdhouse guard that I can't seem to be able to find on the internet. It's an after market attachment that swivels and blocks the entrance if anything heavier than a bluebird sits on it. Then, when the bird flies away, it swivels back to the open position. Have you heard of this and can help me with the name of it?
Never mind, I found it! It's called a Hironbec Pendulum.
I think its only for tree swallows. i think bluebirds weigh to much.
May I ask what is the point of using traps to catch sparrows ? We have the Eurasian Sparrows in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR, too.
you don't use traps to catch any sparrows just house sparrows and only where they are invasive.
I’d rather leave them alone. HONG KONG 🇭🇰 SAR has laws and regulations to protect animal species such as not feeding them, not killing them, not catching them, etc.
Any extinguishing method recommended. Thats the hard part when I've caught them
Try an internet search for euthanizing or dispatching house sparrows.
Sparrows could bring you wealth and fortune,bro,so i suggest don't kill them too much
I would never kill a native sparrow. These things are not really related to our native sparrows. They are sparrows by name only.
I really hate the house sparrows, i trapped around 45 in 2014..i hardly see them around anymore, if i do they don't last long. Bluebirds, Purple Martins, Tree Swallows nest here.
Love to hear this. You are PROOF you can make a difference.
