The House Sparrow is the only species of bird I have seen in every single country I have so far visited (over 30 countries on 6 continents). It is strongly associated with human habitation and is quite common in almost every major town and city in the world.
It was introduced to Australia and New Zealand by early European settlers. It is now common around cities and towns throughout eastern Australia and the whole of New Zealand (except Fiordland).
