The integrity of an entire ecosystem can be harmed by activity on adjacent private land, while wise land stewardship on privately owned land can enhance habitat protection. HAT helps landowners to be “Good Neighbours” of threatened habitats by providing specific information and practical advice for enhancing wildlife habitat and the viability of our ecosystems over time. “There are simple ways that residents can keep native fish, Landowners can protect the Provincially Blue-listed Coastal bird, and other wildlife populations healthy despite increasing Cutthroat Trout of Tod Creek by following the stewardship development and intensive farming. Through a property tips on page 4. walkabout with homeowners we reveal the value and functions of natural lands.

  • Widespread Dispersal of Borrelia Burgdorferi–Infected Ticks Collected from Songbirds Across Canada
    J. Parasitol., 98(1), 2012, pp. 49–59 F American Society of Parasitologists 2012 WIDESPREAD DISPERSAL OF BORRELIA BURGDORFERI–INFECTED TICKS COLLECTED FROM SONGBIRDS ACROSS CANADA John D. Scott, John F. Anderson*, and Lance A. DurdenÀ Research Division, Lyme Disease Association of Ontario, 365 St. David St. South, Fergus, Ontario, Canada N1M 2L7. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Millions of Lyme disease vector ticks are dispersed annually by songbirds across Canada, but often overlooked as the source of infection. For clarity on vector distribution, we sampled 481 ticks (12 species and 3 undetermined ticks) from 211 songbirds (42 species/subspecies) nationwide. Using PCR, 52 (29.5%) of 176 Ixodes ticks tested were positive for the Lyme disease spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi s.l. Immature blacklegged ticks, Ixodes scapularis, collected from infested songbirds had a B. burgdorferi infection prevalence of 36% (larvae, 48%; nymphs, 31%). Notably, Ixodes affinis is reported in Canada for the first time and, similarly, Ixodes auritulus for the initial time in the Yukon. Firsts for bird-parasitizing ticks include I. scapularis in Quebec and Saskatchewan. We provide the first records of 3 tick species cofeeding on passerines (song sparrow, Swainson’s thrush). New host records reveal I. scapularis on the blackpoll warbler and Nashville warbler. We furnish the following first Canadian reports of B. burgdorferi–positive ticks: I. scapularis on chipping sparrow, house wren, indigo bunting; I. auritulus on Bewick’s wren; and I. spinipalpis on a Bewick’s wren and song sparrow. First records of B. burgdorferi–infected ticks on songbirds include the following: the rabbit-associated tick, Ixodes dentatus, in western Canada; I.
