House Sparrow / Vrabac ♀

Description:

A small bird, it has a typical length of 16 cm and a weight of 24–39.5 g. Females and young birds are colored pale brown and grey, and males have brighter black, white, and brown markings.

Habitat:

One of about 25 species in the genus Passer, the House Sparrow occurs naturally in most of Europe, the Mediterranean region, and much of Asia. Its intentional or accidental introductions to many regions, including parts of Australia, Africa, and the Americas, make it the most widely distributed wild bird. The House Sparrow is strongly associated with human habitations, and can live in urban or rural settings. Though found in widely varied habitats and climates, it typically avoids extensive woodlands, grasslands, and deserts away from human development. It feeds mostly on the seeds of grains and weeds, but it is an opportunistic eater and commonly eats insects and many other foods. Its predators include domestic cats, hawks, owls, and many other predatory birds and mammals. This one was spotted in Pizzeria and I shared my pizza with her ;)
