Simple Sparrow

Just a sparrow but sadly numbers are in severe decline 62% have disappeared in the last 25 years ,and as such are on the RSPB's red list ,as are many familiar birds .
According to the RSPB "In the 1950s, the UK house sparrow population was estimated at 9.5 million. They increased to 12 million by the early 1970s, then declined. The population crashed during the 1990s. Over 25 years the population has declined by 62%. Because of this decline in numbers, the house sparrow is now red listed as a species of high conservation concern."
