The auto stand and the sparrows
February 7, 2018
A group of auto drivers at Five Lights auto stand here have come in appreciation by one and all for providing a space to hundreds of sparrows by planting a tree. The drivers, in order to provide a home to the sparrows, planted a tree 10 years ago and placed small pots on them so that the birds could rest on them. As days and years passed by, the number of sparrows has multiplied. Hundreds of sparrows have now made the tree their home and the chirping of these birds are proving to be music to the ears of those crossing the area.
