Dear all

As you know that much is being discussed about the decline of House Sparrows in India, you are requested to participate in this unique and interesting citizen science programme and share your knowledge about the status and distribution of House Sparrows. 

By spending 5 minutes documenting the presence or absence of sparrows in localities you know well, both at present and at any time in the past, you will join enthusiasts all over the country in helping sparrows. 

You will be asked a brief set of questions, including the precise location of areas you know (or knew) well, aspects of the habitat in these localities, sparrow presence or absence in these localities, and optional information about things like locations of nests, amount of green space, and so on. The questionnaire is very simple to fill, and there is also space for you to share your favorite sparrow stories! 

Citizen Sparrow will run for two months, and closes on 31 May, so do participate now! 

and please spread the word among your friends as well.
