I know, so many people have said that...I wonder if the Audubon counterpart organizations in Europe would accept some young European House Sparrow chicks as candidates for reintroduction. Who here knows where to get information about this? I am assuming this has already been suggested and for some reason, the scientists and naturists over there said no and listed reasons...or am I assuming too much?

They are numerous here and in other countries, but not where it is native. If they need some over there, we could send them some, perhaps! Margaret
