Tree Sparrows in town

It is known that Tree Sparrows (Passer montanus) in Central Europe are expanding their territories to the urban areas. But I didn't know that they breed in artificial cavities. Yesterday I had this view from my flat in Karlová Ves, Bratislava. Pair of Tree Sparrows appeared that they are looking for appropriate nesting cavity.

cavities are below the roof, usually used by Common Swifts
