User:Killing sparrows

Wikibreak!
I will be travelling to summer nesting grounds on Saint Paul Island, Alaska and will be off-Wiki until about June 12th.


I hope you brought your slingshot, it's time for killing sparrows!

Everybody comes to kill sparrows!
St Paul Island, my summer nesting grounds
Bhaktapur, Nepal The view from my balcony, where I sit and drink milk tea in the morning!
Othello, Washington water tank Thirsty birdies gather here on migratory flyway!

Killing sparrows was part of the People's Republic of China campaign, begun in the 1950's, to wipe out The Four Pests, flies, mosquitos, rats and sparrows. Sparrows were later replaced by bedbugs, as sparrows were seen to be important in controlling insects.
