Spring Equinox: March 21st-25th - Sparrows start to nest

The house sparrow likes to nest under cover and has a reputation for nesting in roof spaces, gaining entrance through holes under the eaves, though they also nest in barns and outhouses. They are closely associated with people and their buildings, in cities, towns, suburbs, and farms (particularly around livestock).

Pairs often remain faithful to their nest site and to each other for life, although a lost mate of either sex is normally replaced within days. A hole is filled with dry grass or straw with a nesting chamber lined with feathers, hairs, string and paper.

Congenial - (of a thing) pleasant or agreeable. Suited to one's taste or inclination.
