Si segnala la nidificazione di passera sarda Passer prope hispaniolensis su delle barche da pesca (gozzi) ormeggiate a Margi Spanò (Trapani). Sebbene la nidificazione di uccelli su imbarcazioni sia stata documentata, la maggioranza dei casi è riferita a specie acquatiche quasi esclusivamente appartenenti alle famiglie Anatidae, Rallidae e Sulidae. Di particolare interesse è il fatto che almeno 12 coppie hanno utilizzato come sito di nidificazione cinque diversi gozzi ormeggiati.
