This list of birds was hastily prepared on short notice for Mr. Wilcox’s 
“History of Becker County’’ and is incomplete in many particulars. It 
was intended chiefly for popular perusal, and to indicate to the residents 
of Becker Co. about how many and what birds might be looked for in their 
vicinity. Becker County lies in the southern part of the northwestern one- 
fourth of the State. It is a rectangle 48 miles east and west by 30 miles 
north and south. The southern boundary line lies just below 46° 15' north 
latitude and the 96th meridian passes but a few miles east of the western 
boundary line.
