お腹がいっぱいになって満足した雀は晴れた日に水浴びをしてくれます。
水浴びの時に場所の取り合いを仲間同士でするので水浴びの容器を少し深さのある大きな物に変えました。
雀は水浴びをするとき体の羽をふくらませるので丸く可愛くなります。
水浴びをする時彼らは興奮状態になるようです。
大きな容器に変わっても水浴びの場所の取り合いをやめません。
場所の取り合いは仲間同士のコミュニケーションなのかもしれません。
餌を食べに来る時に20羽くらいの群れと4、5羽の家族らしい群れにわかれました。
私が室内で動くと餌を食べている大きな群れはいっせいに飛び立ちます。
家族らしい群れはベランダの柵にとまりまた下に降りて餌を食べ始めます。
家族らしい群れは大きな群れと一緒に採餌しないようです。
彼らの羽は焦げ茶と黒で模様が一緒なので見分けがつきません。
Once the sparrows are full and satisfied, they show me by bathing on sunny days.
Since they would scramble for the best spots while bathing, I switched to a larger, slightly deeper container.

When sparrows bathe, they fluff up their feathers, making them look round and cute.
They seem to get excited when bathing.
Even when I made the container bigger, they continue to scramble for the best bathing spots.

These squabbles might actually be a form of communication among them.
When they came to feed, they split into a flock of about twenty birds and a smaller group of four or five that appeared to be a family.
Whenever I moved rooms, the large flock feeding would take flight all at once.
The family-like group, however, would perch on the balcony railing before dropping back down to resume feeding.
It seems the family-like group does not forage alongside the larger flock.
Their feathers share the same dark brown and black patterning, making it impossible to tell them apart.
