WBBA represents banders in the U.S. states lying wholly west of the 100th Meridian, Canada west of the 110th Meridian, and Mexico west of the crest of the Sierra Madre Oriental.

As of June 1, 2011, WBBA has 216 members in six countries, including many members outside the WBBA region. Members include individuals and organizations; amateurs and professionals; and active, former, and non-banders. All share an interest in the wealth of information that can be obtained by banding birds.
