English House Sparrows are non-native to North America and are dependent upon humans for food sources. They are indeed, VERY bad. They kill bluebird babies, and sometimes even the parents, and will take over their nests. These birds put pressure on and are very damaging to our native songbird populations. It is important to control these birds if you have them in your yard. One of the best methods is in the Related Links below.

There are numerous species of sparrows that are native to the U.S. These birds are beautiful and sing lovely songs. Just a few of our native species are; the White-Crowned, Harris's, White-Throated, Lincoln's, Grasshopper, Tree Sparrow, Brewer's, Savannah, and others. Many species look similar to each other. Get a good guide book and learn to identify the characteristics of the birds in your area.
