What reading level is Our Feathered Game; a Handbook of the North American Game Birds book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Davis, says the average is a little over three birds brought to bag from each covey flushed. Mr. Starr, after taking the opinion of nearly three hundred sportsmen who replied to his inquiry, places the aver- age at a smaller number. An average shot in a good average day (finding nine coveys), he says, will bag twenty birds, killing 53 per cent, of his shots. The reader who will keep a record of the number of coveys which he shoots at in a season and the number of birds brought to bag will find ...these figures not far wrong.
On stormy days and on days when the snow covers the fields so as to render the partridges conspicuous they will always be found in the woods. The sports- man who is familiar with his ground and knows the fields where the partridges usually are, will seek them in the adjoining cover and not very far from the fence. I have often put up the covey from an angle 124 GALLINACEOUS BIRDS— PARTRIDGES in a rail fence, especially when it was overgrown with briers.
There are a number of varieties (the sub-species of the ornithologists) given in the books, and many at- tempts are made to extend the list.
