To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In both genera the bills are slender and insectivorous. The Wagtails generally have dark feet, and the Pipits pale feet ; but in both genera the hind claw is sometimes short and much curved, and sometimes long and only slightly curved. The general colour of the upper parts varies in the Wagtails from brownish green to slate- grey and black, whilst in the Pipits it is always brown of some shade, either greenish or sandy. In the Pipits the head is generally of the same colour as the back, and the... feathers of both have more or less conspicuous dark centres ; whilst in the Wagtails the head is often quite different in colour from the back, but each feather of both is uniform in colour. The pattern of colour of the wing is nearly the same in both genera. The Pipits have the quill-feathers a uniform brown, without the white bases which are often found in the Wagtails; but in both genera the outside webs have narrow pale edges and the inside webs broad pale edges. In both genera the wing-coverts and innermost secondaries are darker than the quills, the median wing-coverts have pale tips, and the greater wing- coverts and innermost secondaries pale margins to the outside webs.
