ベランダを掃除しました。
雀が割って食べた穀物の殻がたくさんありました。
ベランダはきれいになりました。
I cleaned the veranda.
There were many small grain husks left behind by sparrows that had cracked them open to eat.
The balcony is now clean.

ベランダを掃除したあと丸一日雀は餌を食べに来ませんでした。
彼らが食べた穀物の殻をきれいに掃除したことと餌と水の置き場所がズレたことが原因かもしれません。
ベランダの柵にとまったり近くの木に止まったりしていますがベランダにおりてきません。
２日目になって一羽が餌の鉢の縁にとまり餌をついばみ始めると左右・正面から雀が次々にあらわれました。
水を飲んだり餌をついばんだりしていましたがそのうちに水浴びをはじめました。
鉢の餌をついばんでいる雀が半分です。
残りの雀はタイルの上をつっつき穀物に寄ってくるアリを食べているようです。
After I cleaned the veranda, the sparrows didn't come to feed all day.
This might have been because I had cleared away the grain husks they had eaten, or because the placement of the food and water had shifted slightly.
Although they would perch on the veranda railing or in nearby trees, they wouldn't come down onto the veranda itself.
On the second day, however, once a single sparrow landed on the rim of the feeding bowl and began to peck at the food, other sparrows appeared one after another from the sides and the front.
They drank water and pecked at the food, and before long, they started bathing.
About half of the sparrows were pecking at the food in the bowl.
The others pecked at the tiles, eating the ants drawn to the grain.
