Where to spot
Globally distributed, found in nearly every type of human-modified habitat, including cities, towns, farms, and suburbs. Absent only from dense forests, deserts, and high mountains.
How to spot
Look for them in flocks around buildings, gardens, and urban areas. Listen for their persistent chirping and chattering calls. Males have a grey crown, chestnut nape, black bib, and streaked back; females are plainer brown with a distinct supercilium.
When to spot
Can be observed year-round, as they are non-migratory and largely sedentary. They are most active during the day, particularly around dawn and dusk.
