Hi my name is Tom i am from London ,i have only today joined your forum
i live currently in amsterdam netherlands,.... i have a curious question of which maybe some one could help me on,,, that is a long time ago in the late 1980s i visited some friends in the north of germany , and i was suprised to find that a species of sparrow of which i found so interesting were just the same as our common house sparrow only difference being that they had a spiked form of feather which protruded from the top of there heads ,
They were locally called THE KAISER SPATZE or Kaiser sparrow for pretty obvious reasons
Now i was back in northern germany recently and theres not a sparrow to be SEEN !!! neither house or kaiser sparrow
i would be very happy to know what has happened ,to these lovely Birds ???
