Spanish Sparrow Nestling
Passer hispaniolensis (nestling)
Spanish sparrow nestlings remain in a grass-lined nest in colonies around farmland, wetlands, and villages. They are fed mainly insects by their parents, with soft plant material added as they grow. Bare-skinned at hatching, they give persistent begging calls and rapidly develop insulating down.
