ABC WEDNESDAY--"S" is for "Save the Sparrows"


The population of Belgrade's mascot, the sparrow, has been declining, due to too many pigeons and crows, which overpower the little guys in a struggle for food.

Recently in Tasmajdan Park these sparrow houses were placed in several trees.  At least the sparrows won't have to hustle for housing; tiny holes!

See other S-es on Mrs. Nesbitt's ABC WEDNESDAY.
