I read the other day that someone posted that they had observed House Sparrows feeding from a suet feeder. I think the reason that they are so plentiful is their adaptability. The behavior that I have witnessed from them them is that of "parking lot sparrows". I first saw them doing this at fast food parking lot, years ago. I watched two birds flying back and forth from the front of parked car. I realized finally that they were flying into the grills and eating insects that had been caught in the radiators. I have since witnessed this on several occasions. Has anyone else seen them doing this?
