 My neighbour, across the street has a number of House Sparrows vi=
siting his feeders year-round. Never any around my house, though. I think i=

There are a fair number of Song Sparrows around our neighbour=
hood, (Glenwood Avenue); I saw one White-throated Sparrow a week or so, ago=
. Mind you, Starlings, which are around here year round, are very common, a=
nd are seen in large numbers... they are certainly prolific breeders, that&=
