The Bird of the week for 11/21 is the House sparrow.  

You can find House Sparrows most places where there are houses (or other buildings), and few places where there aren't. Along with two other introduced species, the European Starling and the Rock Pigeon, these are some of our most common birds. The Hose Sparrow is the bird we most often see at our feederwatch station at Weaver Lake.  When you observe house sparrows you will notice that the male and female look different.
