April – They moved to Bernie’s ‘Garden’

May – Bernie spoke to them

June – The garden fell silent

July - Hillary spoke to Bill

August – Bernie fell silent

September – Hillary didn’t speak to the sparrows

October – Bill spoke to the Attorney General

November – Hillary e-mails

December – Trump tweets

Love this...the correlation between sparrows and tweets is priceless. This was great. I hope you're not storing this on a private server though...that could be trouble. : )
