To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Perhaps the bird may shufHe the enticing seed with its bill, sufficient to whet the appetite, and yet be unable to partake of it. At such times the feet are on the extreme edge, the neck strained its utmost ; an inch further and a royal feast will be his. One more effort, and he is a lost bird one forward slide, one anxious struggle, and his balance is gone beyond recovery. He has no room to expand the wings, his feet cannot regain the edge. In this ignominious attitude, tail uppermost, he fall...s an exhausted and easy prey to the fowler on his rounds. Traps and snares on land are never successful with geese ; one bird caught in view of 152 THE FOWLER IN IRELAND.
his companions, by his struggles and cries, tells a warning not easily forgotten by his relations, who at once quit the spot for a long period. In pitfalls, as described, the birds are so quietly taken that I have seen the gaggle busily feeding round the captive, who, with but tail in view, is well nigh motionless from the moment he is overbalanced.
