Oil painting: Baby sparrow

I've always loved sparrows, and their decline makes me so sad. In Paris 3 out of 4 has disappeared in the last decade, and this decline is world wide, I noticed it in Montreal too. Please boycott non organic food ( pesticids = less insects = sparrow chicks dying of hunger)
(Painting available: http://www.marinadieul.com/boutique )
J'ai toujours aimé les moineaux, et je suis bien attristée par leur déclin. À Paris 3 sur 4 ont disparu, et ce déclin est mondial, je le vois tous les jours à Montréal. S'il vous-plaît, boycottez tout ce qui n'est pas biologique ( pesticides = moins d'insectes = les bébés moineaux meurent de faim)
