What reading level is Nature's Carol Singers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The \\'ater Ouzel, as it is sometimes called, is not at all a sociable bird. It takes possession of some portion of a stream, often limited to a few hundred yards in length, and keeping more or less strictl\- to it will not allow any intruder of its own species to encroach upon its domain.
In appearance it is by no means un- like a large black \^'ren with a sno^^•y- white breast and chestnut under parts.
114 THE DIPPER It secures its food in the most wonder- ful manner wlien tlie fact is taken ...into consideration that the bird appears to be no more adapted to the methods it em- ploys than a Song Thrush. Alighting on some stone in the middle of a rapid stream, it deliberately walks down into the water and swims along the bottom by a series of wing-beats, picking up and swallowing as it goes caddis worms, larvai of flies, and small molluscs. On several occasions I have disturbed young Dippers in the nest when they were ready to fly, and have seen them one by one plunge into a deep, clear pool and pro- gress just as if they were flying slowly and heavily along under water until they came to shore or were compelled to rise to the surface from exhaustion.
