What are the little black birds i have in my yard called that eating sparrows?

House Sparrows (Passer domesticus) are small brown/grey birds with distinctive chestnut heads and white feathers on their wings. Although they are often found around human settlements and have been introduced to many parts of the world, House Sparrows are not native to North America. They were introduced from Europe in the 1850s and have since become a common sight in urban and suburban areas. These versatile birds are known for their ability to adapt to various environments and their feeding habits, which include consuming seeds, grains, insects, and even small invertebrates. House Sparrows have been known to aggressively displace native bird species from nesting sites and compete with them for food resources, leading to their consideration as an invasive species in many regions.
