House Sparrow
Passer domesticus

House Sparrows are not as common as they were due to destruction of their habitat in the towns and country. They’re very social birds, with a strict hierarchy dictated by the size of the black bib on the males. Males have chestnut sides to their heads, grey crowns and black bibs, while the females have grey and light brown heads with a fairly prominent supercillium.
