Perhaps a sparrow tattoo can be a reminder that your creativity won’t go unnoticed, though we hope it won’t take 20 years to gain traction! You may have even heard this song in your backyard without realizing it.īeing a creative isn’t easy there are so many talented artists and it may feel like you’ll never be recognized. It has taken 20 years, but it has become the tune of choice amongst the white-throated sparrow population in general. The white-throated sparrow composed a new song to replace the old. It may seem that birds’ chirps are set in stone, but that isn’t the case. If you’re an artist, songwriter, author, or another type of creative, you may be able to connect with the sparrow. In rural areas, they live near farms so they can pick seeds and grains out of livestock dung (gross yes, but still resourceful). In suburban areas, they enjoy seeds put out by us. Similarly, rather than looking for food in the wild, they purposefully live near humans because they know that we will feed them.
Instead, they use what we humans already have in place! This may be birdhouses we have set up or the eaves of our own homes.
House sparrows don’t waste time looking for shelter in the wild. Resourcefulness is an amazing quality to have because it allows you to adapt to any situation. Some of the greatest heroes in literature weren’t strong or brave, but instead, resourceful. If you connect with the latter, a sparrow can be a smaller, cuter symbol of freedom that isn’t directly associated with American patriotism. While these things are important, freedom can also be the freedom to be yourself or to pursue your dreams. It symbolizes freedom in terms of politics and rights. Though many think of the bald eagle as the bird that symbolizes freedom, the eagle is also a very patriotic symbol. The fact that they can walk on land, fly through the sky, and swim in the water means they have the freedom to go wherever they like. Interestingly enough, sparrows can swim underwater. Humans have often regarded the ability to fly as symbolic of freedom, so like bird tattoos in general, the sparrow is also representative of this. If you see yourself as a friendly person and are looking for a tattoo to represent that, then the sparrow may be a good choice for you. Some are even willing to eat out of your hand. It’s not uncommon for them to hop right up to your table in hopes of something to nibble on. This is especially true for birds that live in urban or suburban areas. Not only that, most of them aren’t afraid of humans. As we mentioned, they are quite social with both their own species and other birds. Though sparrows can be savage when it comes to defending their territory and acquiring the best nesting spots, they are otherwise very friendly. Not only do sparrows partake in the aforementioned activities, but they don’t migrate and tend to live in the same community for their whole lives. Similarly, if you have a strong connection with your community, a sparrow tattoo can be a way to honor this. If you see yourself as a social person who enjoys nothing more than spending time with friends, then a sparrow tattoo may be a great fit. They’re also known to enjoy group chirp-alongs where they gather in bushes and call together. They also partake in a number of social activities such as dust bathing, where they throw dust and soil over their feathers.
They roost together and sometimes share nesting areas with other House Sparrows. They can often be found eating in flocks with other species. They’re also known to chase other birds out of prime nesting spots, especially those that are man-made, like birdhouses or the eaves of a home. In fact, House Sparrows have been observed to threaten and attack around 70 different species that have entered their territory. They may be small in stature, but they’re willing to put up a fight to protect their nests or even to get what they want. However, sparrows are among some of the bravest avian species. When we think of strong, brave animals, we don’t typically think of birds. Therefore, if you’re interested in a sparrow tattoo meaning love, you’ll want to choose the house sparrow specifically. The House Sparrow, however, does mate for life. While most sparrow species do form monogamous pairs, many stay together only for the mating season. You may be interested in representing your love for someone through a sparrow tattoo after hearing that they mate for life. If not, at least you’ll have a lot of cool sparrow facts to share at parties. It’s likely you’ll find one that speaks to you. The sparrow has a number of meanings associated with its small, feathered body.
