    Matthew 10:29-31, ". . . Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. . . ."

    "In the Four Pests campaign, citizens were called upon to destroy mosquitoes, rats, flies, and sparrows. The mass eradication of the sparrows resulted in an increase of the population of crop-eating insects, which had no predators without the sparrows."

    True story, hard lesson learned within the corn growing community - Grackles are now allowed to take their 10% of corn for the insect control they provide.
