Question for you...........

I was thinking just yesterday that I might need your help! Who can tell me the difference between Mockingbirds and Mocking Birds? There could be a prize involved for the correct answer. If there is more than one correct answer, then there will be a drawing! It's Sunday, July 19th........so please let me know by Sunday, July 26th!!!!!

Well . . . as Miss Maudie explained to Scout in To Kill A Mockingbird, "They don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us."
I'm going to guess that mocking birds is just making fun of birds by copying the sounds they make.

I would say Mockingbird and Mocking birds are really the same things.
Mimicking, copying, mocking.
Me saying the same things everyone else has said.

There is Mockingbird and Mocking-bird, but they are the same thing. I think it iust depends on how others spell it.
