The sparrows are checking out my kitchen window again, they may come back since construction has cut down all the trees in what used to be the swamp behind our house.  It wasn't a huge stand of trees, but now that they are all gone, the birds and squirrels are moving into our yard.  I noticed the squirrels at the bird bath today drinking water.  Their source of fresh water is gone now, as the river near here is brackish with a mix of fresh and sea water. Progress for people, but not so much for our urban wild life.
