What reading level is The Birds of Greenland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
During the winter, from the close of November to May, I did not keep any birds captive, and my identification of the sexes was based chiefly on difference of voice and color.
Their usual summer garb, worn during the hatching-season, and until the beginning of July, is a uniform dark-gray one on the back, the sides gray with white stripes, a blackish fleck on the throat, a blackish bill, and a crown of crimson. About seven per cent are tinged with a rosy color on the upper tail-coverts, and espe...cially on the breast. A few had also a reddish tint on the malar region, though otherwise darker colored. The males which I saw at the nests had red crests, but were nowhere else red-colored.
The moulting begins in July or August, and then the birds lose all this red color, even the brightest-colored males. In the autumn dress, which they then obtain, they BIRDS OF IVIGTUT. 33 are of a much lighter color and display more yellow, not, indeed, that the feathers are of a uniform yellow on the back, but they are variegated with lighter and darker streaks of yellowish-brown.
