Domestic to Wild Disease Transmission in Birds?

Domestic to Wild Disease Transmission in Birds?I have to write an essay on an ecological issue related to birds and I wanted to research an avian disease, but I was wondering if there are any out there that are specifically transmitted from domestic pets (parrots, finches, etc) to a wild species, or maybe at least diseases that have become a problem due to the avian pet trade. Any suggestions?

Avian influenza mainly goes in the wrong direction ( wild to domestic ) but is interesting for humans too.

And from domestic to wild is possible too
