That is a new one for me, a "semi-literate bird". One that can barely read and/or write?

What am I missing here? Is that an "Edge-ism" or "Egg-ism" or ?

I walked Rock Bridge Mem. SP, Boone Co., today.  Low numbers of warblers.  The surprise was a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, a semi-literate bird I suppose.  It is early, but not exceptionally so.
