How to Identify Sparrows in Kentucky
The House Sparrow is the predominant sparrow species in Tennessee, but there is a relatively recent addition known as the Song Sparrow, which can be observed in specific regions of the state. The House Sparrow is a compact bird with red to black streaks on its back and distinctive white cheeks. Female House Sparrows tend to have a predominantly brown appearance with a prominent eye-stripe. These sparrows typically feed on grass seeds and certain types of insects.
Problems and Damage
Sparrows are frequently observed in residential areas, primarily because they often choose building structures as their preferred nesting sites. These avian creatures commonly construct their nests in places like vents near homes, within roof returns, and even in gaps around window trim. It is advisable to identify and remove sparrow nests since they can frequently harbor a variety of parasites. Additionally, sparrows can be carriers of diseases such as Salmonellosis, Coccidiosis, and Toxoplasmosis. It is worth noting that not all sparrows are disease carriers, but any instances of scratches or bites should be promptly addressed by seeking medical attention from a healthcare professional.
