What reading level is Field Studies of Some Rarer British Birds book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


The adult Chough's plumage has already been described, but quite full plumage is not, I think, obtained until the bird's second autumn-moult. Anyhow, with a pair kept captive, the really red bill and legs had not been acquired at the age of nearly a year, those parts then still possessing the orange-wash of immaturity ; and as it is a fact that I have still to meet with or hear of a pair of breeding Choughs lacking the full insignia of totally red bill and legs, one may fairly conclude that the
... species fails to breed until nearly two years old. Moreover, in some Chough districts, I have cer- tainly seen parties of the birds in nest-time out of all proportion numerically to the recognised breeding- stock. Assuredly, some of these sus- pected non-breeders have had orange-red bill and legs.
When first hatched, young Choughs are blind, remaining so for four or five days. To begin with CHOUGHS 87 they are naked and pink-skinned, with leaden markings down the feather-tracts ; their irides, when eventually visible, are hazel.
