Briefly reviews the history of the University of Michigan Biological Station, situated on 9,500 acres between Burt and Douglas lakes in Michigan's northern Lower Peninsula, 1909-1973; details the history of ornithological investigations at the station; and provides an annotated list of 251 species documented at the station and surrounding region through 1973. An important regional work.
