What reading level is British Sea Birds book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The exact nature of the food of this species is apparently unknown. It is said, in a vague and general way, to feed on crustaceans and small molluscs, and the scraps of refuse cast from passing vessels, but birds which I have dissected contained similar substances 250 BRITISH SEA BIRDS. To those found in the Fulmar a nearly clear oil, mingled with the jaws of cuttlefish, and scraps of sorrel. The Fork-tailed Petrel resorts to its breeding stations to nest in June. Although gregarious during thi...s period, its colonies are never so large as those of the Fulmar. Most probably the bird pairs for life, and returns season by season to certain spots to rear its young. The largest colony of this Petrel known to me is at St. Kilda. Here its principal colony is located on the island of Soay, but there is another and smaller one on Doon, and doubtless others on Borreay. At the colony on Doon, the ground was full of long, winding burrows, probably disused nesting holes of Puffins and Shear- waters, and in these the Fork-tailed Petrels had made their nests in some cases one earth accom- modating several pairs of birds.
