What reading level is Reptiles And Birds a Popular Account of the Various Orders With a Description book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Poachard nearly resembles the American Canvas-back Duck, but is unlike any British species in form. Its body (of the male) is large, full, depressed, and elliptical in form ; its neck long and thick ; the head large, oblong, compressed, and rounded above. The plumage is dense, soft, and glossy. The feathers on the fore part of the head are small and stiff ; on the remainder of the head and neck soft, silky, and blended. The wings are short, curved, narrow, and pointed. The bill black to a l...ittle beyond the nostrils, the inter- mediate space light greyish blue. The head, and half the neck all round, are of a fine brownish- orange tint.
* From the noise made by their wings they are in some localities called Whistlers.
R2 244 DUCKS, GEESE, SWANS, AND PELICANS.
The Poachard (Fig. 91) is, next to that of the Common Wild Duck, the variety which is most plentiful on our waters. It is almost as large as the latter ; it makes its nest in the rushes round pools or lakes, and feeds upon the roots of grasses and aquatic plants, also on worms, mollusks, and small fish.
