My feeders at the moment are full of Starlings and House Sparrows, both Adult and young, and the hedgerows alongside Primrose fields, just across from were I live have lots of Sparrows in them and that's were the adult sparrows appear to be taking the seed, so maybe more young to come. The estate in general have good numbers of sparrows on the roadside and in the front gardens.
