You can get the Facebook Calendar links for your friends’ birthday and events, then add those to your Apple iCal, Microsoft Outlook, or Google Calendar. Here's how.
A note about the instructions at the link above, you may need to right-click on the Birthdays and Events links and then copy the link address.

Google Calendar –

2. Click 'Add by URL,'

You can protect your friends’ identities.
By default, everyone sees your friends list, but there are many reasons you might not want that to be public information. Fortunately, you can hide that list so that it is not visible to the public. Here's how.
You can choose which friends get to see the content you post.
When adding a post to Facebook, you can choose who gets to see it by selecting your audience from a drop-down menu to the left of the Post button.
You can also choose who sees any post or photo you have been tagged in. See the instructions here.
