I want to build a simple circuit that will turn off a 120 volt light
for 5 minutes when my bird is too noisy. After that I would like the
light to go back on. Can anyone help or direct me to best newsgroup?


how involved can you get? Do you know how to get parts, and solder a simple circuit? Or, do you want an off-the-shelf solution?

If you can build circuits, you can use a relay, an electret microphone, a transistor, and a 555 monostable (along with a few resistors and capacitors) to build something that would work.

If you are interested in a circuit to build, please reply here.
