What is the meaning of the nautical sparrows?

Sparrows are (I should say "were") symbolic for sailors that have logged 5000 nautical miles at sea. These are blue swallows as far as tradition goes. The others are just new schooler trying to bring back some old school with there own twist. I personally have one tattooed under each arm showing for my two trips around the world. For you other real sailors keep the tradition and have some pride in your service. Answer I have them on my back shoulders for having sailed across both hemispheres. They represent a sailor's safe return home from sea. Sailors would see the sparrows and follow them to the shore.
