That's the best use for a house sparrow that I've seen.

Stories like this are why I feed my fish well.

My five year old nephew spooked a fledgling red wing black bird out of its nest in the cattails last summer. The little guy made a valiant effort to fly to the next group of cattails but made a water landing about 8 feet short of the goal. We watched it struggle towards safety for a couple of minutes. Just as it was within about two feet of the cattails, I said: "It looks like he is going to make it." As the words came out of my mouth, the little guy disappeared in a frothy swirl. Without missing a beat my five year old nephew says: "It looks like it's going to be dead!" I had to keep myself from laughing, and we went back to fishing.

I hunted doves over a pond loaded with monster channel cats one year. I was totally shocked when the first quivering crippled dove was pulled under in a black swirl. We ended up losing 3 or 4 birds total that day to the fish.
Made me think that I needed to tie up some giant dove pattern dry flies to go after those giant cats.
What a story that would make!
