1) The study observed the parental behaviors of field sparrows, specifically their nestling feeding frequency relative to the age of the parents. 2) Prior studies only categorized parents as second-year birds or older, but this study was able to determine the exact age of each parent up to their sixth year, allowing observation of feeding patterns among parents of varied precise ages. 3) Preliminary results agreed with prior findings that feeding frequency increases with nestling age, and suggested a tendency for older male and female sparrows to pair up and a positive relationship between feeding frequency and number of nestlings.
