The sparrow started off (like a lot of tattoos in American culture) on sailors out at sea for months at a time. It started off as a symbol of hope. Another thing it could be a symbol for is a lost/deceased friend. But, now a days, most people with a sparrow tattoo probably got it for visual pleasure.
Thats wrong, most people mix up sparrow and swallow. Sparrow is a small brown land bird. add a comment
