What reading level is The British Bird book book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He seems to spread his wings just because he is conscious of their beauty when thus opened out.
198 But we need not travel so far as Brazil to find examples of displays of this kind. Among the birds of our own Islands we can find many close parallels. The chaffinch and the gold- finch, when seeking to arouse the sympathy of their mates, make much play with their wings, not only in short " nuptial flights," designed, apparently, to display the conspicuous and brilliant colouring of the plumage a...s a whole, but when perched on some convenient spray. At such times the wing is more or less completely spread out, as if to reveal, to the fullest possible advantage, the bright bars and splashes of colour which this extension alone can bring into being.
Since these gaily coloured vestments seemed always to be associated with striking, stilted attitudes, sometimes bordering on the grotesque, and always to be paraded in the presence of the female, Darwin drew the inference that they were the outcome of female choice persistently exercised during long generations.
