Sparrow

@LowRiderX the sparrow is also common in Africa according to an African I met in Singapore. Maybe it can be called the universal bird.

@Alexandoy There are them all over the world, but there are also many species

@Alexandoy Yes, it is very likely that there are some there as well, but as I said, there are many types and they do not look the same to the eye, probably in other respects as well. The one in the picture above is a female, the male has slightly darker wings and that's exactly what they look like here

@LowRiderX How nice of you. The little things in life are the best.

@CarolDM I only absorb positive things

@CarolDM I knew you would like it, you inspired me the most to tell it here

@GardenGerty It was written that the scene was horrible, too sad. I can't even imagine what happened to people if a sparrow passed like that

@LowRiderX Beautiful bird story.

@eileenleyva In fact, this is more of a story from history than a legend. Thanks one more time!

@eileenleyva Thanks, I'm glad you liked the story. I read a lot here about birds so I remembered this story

@LowRiderX You are welcome.

@Deepizzaguy You are welcome George, thanks for reading

@thelme55 Yes, I think that period was the worst for my people and the people around me (countries around Serbia)

@LowRiderX yes, I am sure it was. Enjoy your Sunday.

@thelme55 You too, thank you Thelma

@LowRiderX It sounds like it.

@snowy22315 Exactly! And it's been so long indeed ..

@snowy22315 Thank you

@DianneN Yes, you can imagine what a fight it was when the sparrow was so killed, with people I can only think how it was ..he deserved to be a symbol

@LowRiderX So many deaths.

@DianneN I think it is the worst period in our history

@LowRiderX I'm glad it left stories behind.

@just4him Yes, at least something

@just4him It was definitely the most difficult period for this region, it left a lot of traces, among other things and this story

@LowRiderX That person was blessed by god for that he will only die when he want. When ever someone take an oath then his name taken like in our language Bhisma Pratigya (Bhisma Oath) because he took that oath because of his father said that keep protect nation till you last breath and he take own that he will not marry and will only fight from his nation or his part. He was blessed by many gods. Once time comes that king of his own nation was doing bad thing and did harm people of pandas(5 brothers who also belong from same family.) Situation like of war but as you and me both know when truth and false do fight truth always win and god also take side of truth. Due to his oath, he has to fight from side even he know its going on wrong. He has that power and very expert and war like archery that its impossible to defeat him. But i am sure you know Lord Krishna he was in side of truth so he guide opposition that what to do. Bhisma also took one oath that he will not use any weapon against woman because he respect them. So they use tricks that keep one person infront of him who was woman in last berth , who thought bhisma did. wrong with her so to take revenge she joined. Bhisma want himself that opposition will win this war because they are fight for truth so when Arjun use arrow to Bhisma then he keep saying you win my blessings with you. Arjun and Bhisma has great bond and even arjun too crying while throwing arrows to him. At last he thrown lots of arrow and this situation comes that it passes from all his body and made bed of Arrows. He still didn't die until war finish because of his blessing that he will only die when he want.

@birjudanak Amazing story, I like it. I want to thank you very much for sharing this story with us!! I hope a lot of people read it, it's worth!

@birjudanak Interesting... I didn't know about this story of yours either. Can you tell me more about this?

@LowRiderX That is great, Sparrows are such a beautiful animal.

@nela13 Yes, amazing. At one time they started to disappear, there were fewer and fewer of them ... now there are a lot of them again

@nela13 Yes, they are cute

@LowRiderX Yes true? I guess so many arrows were fired it took the sparrow completely by surprise.

@dgobucks226 I think that was the most difficult period for this part of the world

@dgobucks226 Yes, sad but a true story.. that surprises me, they are really fast (among other things)

@LowRiderX there are many they are all over where i live!

@DocAndersen They are good birds

@DocAndersen Thanks, I love history. And regarding the photo, I tried to find an identical sparrow as it is here, the picture shows a female, the male has slightly darker wings ... otherwise there are many, many species of sparrows

@LowRiderX Woman, I am a peasant, but I know something about everything.

@Nevena83 I'm just asking, woman

@Nevena83 Did you know about this sparrow story? Did you even know that the sparrow is a symbol of Belgrade?

@popciclecold Thank you very much! I'm glad you like

@bunnybon7 Thank you

@changjiangzhibin89 Exactly, we can only guess how the people passed if this was done to a sparrow ..

@LowRiderX You are very welcome

@simone10 Yes it is. Thank you Sharon

@VivaLaDani13 You are welcome. I tried to retell briefly, I know people don’t like long stories

@KeepCalmdrinktea You are welcome Joanna, to be honest I don't have as much knowledge about birds as I do about history, I'm still learning about birds and I'm just supplementing history
