Naturalistic & Musical tasks

Question: Write a song about the Tom Robinson Trial / life in Maycomb/ any other incident.

This is a song about Dill and Scout.

Charles Baker Harris stepped off the train he had ridden on. He was 18, and he was scared. There was a girl, and this girl was the only girl that got him. And he knew, deep down, he loved her.

The only problem was that Charles Baker Harris hadn't seen Jean Louise Finch since he was eight years old, and any right boy would know that 10 years of separation would wear a relationship down.

But, Charles Baker Harris also knew that Jean Louise Finch, aged seven, had agreed to marry him during their second summer together in Maycomb. And despite the time lapse, that ought to count for something. Because no matter what, no matter when, he was still Dill, and she was still Scout, and no force on earth could change that.

So, Dill swallowed his worries and walked out of the station. He would make Scout Finch his, he would marry her.

Question: Do a research on the natural habitat of mockingbird. In your research, include the kind of flora and fauna you think exist in Maycomb and explain why the mockingbirds live in Maycomb.

A mockingbird, usually a Northern one, are medium-sized with gray upperparts, paler gray underparts, and thin black mask. Its wings are gray-black with two white bars and large white patches visible when spread. The tail is long, gray, and edged with white. Legs and feet are black.The Northern mockingbird feeds on fruit and insects.

The Northern mocking breeds from northern California, eastern Nebraska, southern Ontario, and Maritime Canada southward. It spends winters in the southern part of range. It can be mostly found in residential areas, city parks, farmlands, open country with thickets, and desert brush.

I think Maycomb is full of plants and animals. As mockingbirds as usually found in residential areas, city parks, farmlands, open country with thickets and desert brush, Maycomb is the best place for them to stay. Maycomb is full of houses, as well as the natural surroundings. Mocking birds love these kinds of conditions, and therefore, I feel that mockingbirds are most likely to habitat in Maycomb due the the above factors I have mentioned.
