Sparrows are seed eaters, members of the fringillidae. They are somewhat smaller than swallows, and most species are a brown or brown streaked in color. The swallow family are insect eaters, and swift acrobatic flyers. They are very colorful birds, with the cliff and barn swallows being among our most beautiful birds.
