Yes, I noticed the recurring theme of birds. And "To Kill A Mockingbird" is another book that we read in high school. I am not sure what that has to do with us as we are not from Georgia and only know what we read in the book. Coincidentally, my great-grandparents had a missionary colleague named Clinton Finch but I don't suppose there would be any connection there to Atticus Finch, only a fictional character based loosely on the stories of author Harper Lee's own father, Amasa Coleman Lee. But besides that book was not published until 1960.
