health of my bird around other birds

hello i was just wondering if sparrows or small falcons can carry anything as far as disease or parasites that can be transferred to a parrot. obviously i would sanitize or wash in between dealing with the different animals.

Yes - it can go bird to bird. It can go human to bird and back.
