Identify A Wild Bird...

This site's focus is on North American (USA and Canada) wild birds and song birds. Wild bird identification isn't always something that can be done online from a web page, but we've tried to provide some tips that may help you identify the wild birds that appear at your feeder or in your back yard. (Not all birds will come to a feeder after all.)

View the articles (at left) that are currently in the Identify Wild Birds category to see if one of these articles may assist you in finding out the name of the bird you've spotted.

An online bird book!

As an added service we have begun a listing of North American birds, their habits and coloration, and photos are slowly being added to each bird category and description. It's an online bird book.

Other Identification Help

We now have a birding forum open where you can submit digital pictures of a bird and we can help you to identify and name it. Until that time feel free to contact us.
