An Ecosystem-Wide Crisis
Sparrows could be once found everywhere and are hard to spot now. The answer lies in a mix of factors, all linked to the rapid transformation of both cities and farms. House sparrows may be highly adaptable, but that does not guarantee they can thrive with all changes that humans introduce to their environment.
Since sparrows share their habitat with us, their decline is a warning sign of environmental issues that affect us too. Protecting them isn’t just about saving a species—it’s about preserving a balanced ecosystem for future generations
But what can we do?
Provide Nesting Spaces
Sparrow easily adapts to man-made nests and this can lead to long-term conservation of the bird
Offer Food and Water
Place grains like millet, rice, wheat and fresh water in shaded areas or in the nests directly
Plant Native Trees
Trees provide natural nesting sites for sparrows and create a healthier habitat for the birds
Avoid Pesticides
Use organic farming methods and encourage kitchen gardening with pesticide-free plants
Spread Awareness
Organize school and community events to educate people about sparrow protection and so much more!
Science Meets Nature: Our Organic Sparrow Bamboo Nest
To drive innovation in sparrow conservation, we have partnered with experts from IIT Guwahati to develop a scientifically engineered birdhouse designed for optimal sparrow habitation.
This research-backed design integrates advanced insights into bird behavior and ecology, ensuring a safe and comfortable shelter for sparrows. The birdhouse is designed with two separate spaces, so two sparrows can nest safely without disturbance. It also includes a built-in feeder that provides a steady supply of grains and water, making it easier for sparrows to find food and stay healthy.
Engineered by Experts
Engineered by Prof. A.K. Das, a design engineer from IIT Guwahati, in collaboration with Ornithologists and a team of Professors from Gauhati University. The design was developed under Bishram Ghar, an NGO based in Guwahati.
Cause for the Community
Locally crafted in Guwahati, our birdhouses support skilled artisans and sustainable livelihoods. Plus, 7.5% of proceeds fund sparrow conservation awareness, helping communities protect these vital birds.
Together We Can Turn the Tide – Help Conserve Sparrows Now!
A well-designed birdhouse provides sparrows with a safe haven. Save sparrows by providing safe, eco-friendly nests, protecting their habitats, and helping them thrive in our neighbourhoods.
