Birds Flying Away is the second album by Mason Jennings. It was released in January 2000 by the label Bar/None.

While writing this album, the drummer Chris Stock left and was replaced. Jennings had another setback for six months when he contracted mononucleosis, which delayed the release of the album.

Jennings is compared to Dave Matthews in a New York Times review. Unlike the debut, the album included several songs with political themes.
