Abstract

A total of 75 different free living birds (20 sparrow, 15 ibis, 20 Jackdaw and 20 of doves) were collected by trapping from different locations in Sohag Governorate. The bacteriological examination of cloacal, heart, liver, lung and intestinal samples revealed positive isolation of 41 isolates including 15 isolates from Sparrow (S.typhimurium (5), E. coli (5), Staph. aureus (4) and 1 isolate of proteus spp < /em>), 12 from Ibis (S. typhimurium (3), E. coli (4), Staph. Aureus (2) and pseudomonas aeruginosa spp (3), 8 from Jackdaw (S. typhimurium (2), E.coli (3), Staph. Aureus (1) and protues spp < /em> (2)) and 6 from Doves
(2 isolates of each of S. typhimurium, E.coli and protues spp < /em>). The pathogenicity test in three- day old chicks using Salmonella typhimurium, E. coli, and proteus spp < /em> resulted in 80%, 70% and 40% mortalities respectively.In - vitro antibiotics sensitivity test showed that the isolates were highly sensitive to enrofloxacin, flumequine, gentamycin and chloramphenicol. The present study indicated the possibility of wild birds to play an important role in transmitting of bacterial infection among poultry farms.
