To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Mr Audubon witnessed the hatching of a brood, while thus endeavouring to secure the young and mother. 4 1 have lain flat/ says he, ' within a very few feet, and seen her gent- ly rise from the eggs, look anxiously towards thejn, chuck with a sound peculiar to the mother on such an occasion, remove carefully each half empty shell, and with her bill caress and dry the younglings, that already stand tottering and attempting to force their way out of the nest. ' " When the process of incubation is ...ended, and the mother is about to retire from the nest with her young brood, she shakes herself violently, picks and adjusts the feathers about the belly, and assumes a different aspect ; her eyes are alternately inclined obliquely upwards and sideways ; she stretches forth her neck in every direction, to discover birds of prey or other enemies ; her wings are partially spread, and she softly clucks to keep her tender offspring close to her side. They proceed slowly, and, as the hatch- ing generally occurs in the afternoon, they some- times return to pass the night in the nest.
