Widespread local house-sparrow extinctions

Nature, 2002
House-sparrow populations have declined sharply in Western Europe in recent decades, but the reasons for this decline have yet to be identified, despite intense public interest in the matter.

An Unusual House Sparrow Roost

The Condor, 1974
The effect of year, which includes effects of date and density, was based on the value for Marley Wood + 0.2 in 1960, and on 1/ Marley + 2/3 Great Wood for 1961-69. The effects are given in table A3. Habitat. Differences in habitat type, classified as "good" and "bad," within each area produced a small, but only just significant, difference (mean ...
