What reading level is Nestlings of Forest And Marsh book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She was 90 PHCEBES AND THEIR COUSINS some time in deciding. It seemed to be a little higher from the ground than she really Phoebe's nest and young * liked, for she kept flying down from it to the ledge of the door just beneath. But he insisted on his choice and she had promised to obey, so they began to build. So fearless and so friendly were they that conceal- 91 NESTLINGS OF FOREST AND MARSH ment was unnecessary, and I watched them openly. At first they came with mud, then bits of fibre and ...fine moss, then more fibre.
For six days they were busy weaving and shaping it to their taste. As she sat in it to mould it, her little tail was often flat up against the boards, a most uncomfortable position, but the home-making so absorbed her that she did not mind. When the house was finished, an artist might have marvelled at its beauty, — of soft green and silver, so round and smooth that it looked to be shaven, and yet every little spear of moss was perfect in shape. It has been suggested that Phcebes, humming-birds, and others who pad their nests thickly with moss and down, do so to render them non-conductors of electricity during a storm ; but this seems to me very improbable.
