To Kill a MockingBird

I am doing the point of a naturalist.

Mockingbirds are a group of from the Mimidae family. They are best known for the habit of some species mimicking the songs of other birds and the sounds of insects and amphibians, often loudly and in rapid succession. There are about 17 species in three genera. The mocking bird eats ripe berries and garden insects. And it thrives in gardens behind houses and also forests.

As mockingbirds feed on garden insects and berries, Maycomb must be a place rich with berries and garden insects. Thus, many people should have a garden, planting their own vegetables or fruits. And these plants will attract garden pests or insects like grasshoppers.
