THEMES FOR 2024

In 2024, the theme for World Sparrow Day is 'Sparrows: Give them a tweet-chance!', 'I Love Sparrows' and 'We Love Sparrows'.

DEEP CONNECTION

The theme this year highlights the special connection between humans and sparrows.

SUMMER HEAT

Store some water in a bowl during the summers for birdbath.

BUY A NEST BOX

Invest in a standard, small hole-fronted nest box, with an entrance hole. Most of these nests come in different sizes and shapes.

SPARROWS LOVE SEEDS

Sparrows enjoy a variety of seeds including sunflower, safflower, suet and millets. Many online and pet stores sell bird feed.

GROW LOCAL

Try to grow more native plants in the garden, this will help the sparrows to feed on insects and worms.

SOCIAL MEDIA HYPE

Utilise social media platforms to share images and videos in order to raise awareness about the decline in sparrow populations.
