Capillaria in Sharp-shinned Hawks: Current Trends and Research Directions 2024

Banders at Braddock Bay Raptor Research have been monitoring the capillaria parasitic infection in Sharp-shinned hawks since the spring of 2020. A total of eight banding stations in the U.S. and Canada are now inspecting these hawks when captured. The rates of infection vary from station to station and those results will be reported. Current and future research directions will be discussed.
