Planning Debacle
Enterprising sparrows have adopted an old swallows nest with interesting results (we found this in a shed while we were searching for Barn Owls). The swallows (writing in transit of course) have complained that the conversion is clearly unsympathetic to the original design. They go further and describe the new build as ‘hideous’ and ‘just typical of those chavvy sparrow types’.

In responce to you article, I would like to congratulate the Sparrow in question on what is in my opinion a masterful and stylish extention on to what can only be described as pile of mud and spittle. I myself recently converted a pointless one room Long-tailed Tit house into a luxurium condominium for providing homes for seventy five Sparrow families. May I suggest that the discruntled Hirundinidae save his criticism for his own sad attempt at ’self build’ and instead takes a long hard look our fine Sparrow architecture and try to learn a thing or two….no matter how hard it might be for him to swallow!!
