What reading level is Hand book to the Birds of Great Britain volume 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sometimes the descent of the bird is perpendicular, sometimes in an oblique direction ; and its progress under the water is made apparently as easily as through the air, even more so, turning and gliding about with ever graceful movements, and sometimes hovering over a morsel of food like a Tern. The Guillemots at the Aquarium rarely stay under the surface more than half-a-minute ; but in the open sea I have known them to remain down for a much longer time.
" The food of the Guillemot is largel...y composed of the fry of fishes, notably that of the herring ; but this fare is also varied by small crustaceans, marine insects, molluscs, and various small fish. This food is often obtained near the coasts, in sheltered bays and estuaries, where the birds congregate in large numbers ; but at night they generally go out to the open sea, except during the breeding season. The Guillemot is often caught in the herring nets, and is sometimes taken on the hooks baited with small fishes. It takes its prey, if it be a fish, crosswise, and swallows it after changing its position.
