To Contact Us:Hi There! My name is Susan Kelly, and I am the new owner of A Home For Wild Birds.com. This site was previously built by John Huff, a bird enthusiast from New Hampshire. Unfortunately, circumstances prevented John from being able to continue working on this website. As a bird lover and enthusiast I am your new editor. I live on the other side of the continent in British Columbia, Canada. So I would say between the two of us, we pretty well have the continent covered. My home is on a lake, in the Okanagan Valley; a valley that is a destination spot for birders. Some of the best birding in the world is here! Not familiar with British Columbia? Have a view of the following one and a half minute video. And the lake that you'll see behind Kim Cattrell of Sex and the City is the lake I live on.
Living on a lake has it's advantages. Some of the birds in my back yard include Ospreys, Herons, Meadowlarks, and Hooded Mergansers. While not everyone can live on a lake, one of the best things you can do to encourage birds in your own back yard is to provide water for birds. 
I also live on a migratory flight route for many birds. These Sand Hill Cranes visited last fall on their way to Texas from the boreal forests of Canada. We counted over 100 of them!Bird holidays are often on my agenda as well. There are wonderful great places to go on our quest for more birds. Recently, I just returned from seeing the monarch butterfly migration in Mexico - a trip I highly recommend. This site is for bird lovers everywhere to share their love. Our motto is help and be helped. In the meantime, please bear with me as the site undergoes renovations. If you have a question about birds in your back yard, let our community of birder lovers
answer it for you.
