Transport of ixodid ticks and tick-borne pathogens by migratory birds [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
Birds, particularly passerines, can be parasitized by Ixodid ticks, which may be infected with tick-borne pathogens, like Borrelia spp., Babesia spp., Anaplasma, Rickettsia/Coxiella, and tick-borne encephalitis virus. The prevalence of ticks on birds varies over years, season, locality and different bird species.
