What reading level is Early Annals of Ornithology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
153. Also in Fines Roll, 16 Edward II. (1323).
t Pp. 244, 286.
X As pointed out by Dr. Tieehurst (p. 130), there is a record tor Kent of a Bustard in 1480.
§ Evans's edn., p. 167 jj A century later. See " Pinax," p. 173.
STATUS OF THE GREAT BUSTARD 175 and in the third book of the " Historia Animalium " — qui est cle Allium natura — the Bustard is described twice over.
First in the character of a Scotch bird (p. 159), but Gesner's discrimination was too acute not to realise that the bird known ...to Hector Boece as "a Gustard " was the same as the " Trapp " of the Germans. Of this he gives a very good figure (of a female, p. 468), accompanied by a rather lengthy description, in the course of which, referring to England, Gesner observes : — " Trappos permultos in Anglia esse audio, & locis gaudere aquosis [errore]. Sylvaticus tardam avem in aqua degere scribit. In segetibus [corn-fields] ssepe inveniuntur " (p. 470).
The statement here quoted, that there were very many Bustards — " Trappos permultos " — in England, is somewhat remarkable.
