The Avian "Bird" flu is passed to humans by birds and their saliva and feces. Other forms of influenza that humans can get are also mutations of viruses that birds have had, some are from pigs (like Swine Flu) and many are from a combination of various swine, human, other, and bird flu strains that "reassort" in a host animal. For more information about how a new strain of the flu can be created through reassortant, see the related question below about what caused the 2009 Swine flu.
