What reading level is A Bird Lover in the West book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
My greeting as I took my seat at the open "SQUEE-GEE!" 97 window, unfortunately without blinds to screen me, was most comical. A big pompous fellow turned his wicked-looking white eye upon me, drew himself into a queer humped-up position, with all his feathers on end, and apparently by a strong effort squeezed out a husky and squeaky, yet loud cry of two notes, which sounded exactly like " Squee-gee ! " I was so astounded that I laughed in his face ; at which he repeated it with added emphasis,... then turned his back on me, as unworthy of notice away up in my window, and gave his undivided attention to a specially large grain of corn which had been unearthed by a meek- looking neighbor, and appropriated by him, in the most lordly manner. His bearing at the moment was superb and stately in a degree of which only a bird who walks is capable ; one cannot be dignified who is obliged to hop.
I thought his greeting was a personal one to show contempt which it did emphatically to the human race in general, and to me in particular, but I found later that it was the ordinary blackbird way of being offensive ; it was equivalent to "Get out!" or "Shut up!" or some other of the curt and rude expressions in use by bigger folk than blackbirds.
