Are these mites on the canary?

[SalvadorBu]

Hi,

This canary flew to us asking for help, looks like it was really tired and needed a safe place to rest.
Now, we have budgies and we're definitely keeping them away from the canary as we're trying to help her.
We just noticed something around her eyes, are these mites? If so we're going to have to keep her really far away from them. I'm not sure if this is normal or mites because after checking online pictures of canaries I noticed they also have something similar.
Please let me know.
Thank you

I have never had that so I'm not 100% but I believe it's burrowing mites aka scaly face mites. Spray the room, cage, and nest area with a pyrethins based product. Use ivermectin or moxidectin on the bird.

It's probably had them a long time - good nutrition / vitamins will stregthen the bird.
