My backyard is completely overrun by house sparrows. A birder on the camera forum says they breed like rabbits, and boy does that appear to be the truth. I think they’re on their third sets of hatchlings this season, for pete’s sake! But this one lost a few feathers from the back of her head, so she looks a bit odd sitting there on her branch.
