🐦SAVE OUR SPARROWS PROJECT🐦

Save the Sparrows – Restore Nature! 🌿

With sparrow populations declining due to urbanization, loss of nesting spaces, and changing environmental conditions, our Rotary Club of Margao Midtown is launching the “Save Our Sparrows” conservation project to create awareness and help restore sparrow habitats.

The Challenge:
We are witnessing a rapid decline in local sparrow populations, mainly due to habitat loss. Modern building designs, changing lifestyles, and the increased use of pesticides are leaving these small birds with fewer places to nest and survive.

Our Action Plan:
The Rotary Club of Margao Midtown is stepping forward with the launch of the Save Our Sparrows Project!

🌍 Creating Awareness – Educating our community about the importance of sparrow conservation.

🏡 Distributing Nest Boxes – Providing specially designed sparrow nest boxes to create safe habitats where sparrows can thrive and breed.

Let us work together to bring back the cheerful chirping of sparrows to our neighbourhoods. Stay tuned for more details on distribution and how you can participate.

✨ Let’s protect our feathered friends and restore nature together! 🐦🌱

10-year-old Isabel Makkimane sketches the birds spotted on the walk. Perhaps this is the most meaningful outcome of all, when children from local communities begin to observe, remember and connect with the life around them through their own eyes and hands.

Indian cormorants love rivers, diving, and are very gregarious, it’s no wonder why we love them!

Thanks to @rishforwild for helping us see the blue! Check out the bird’s eyes; they have a slight blue tint in addition to a long-ish bill that helps distinguish them from their relatives, the Little cormorants.

Shout out to Mr. Tom for this lovely footage while we were out exploring our backyards.
