Mockingbirds are very chirpy and are significant in "To Kill a Mockingbird" as the main symbol throughout. Miss Maudie teaches Jem and Scout "they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us..." which shows that mockingbirds are not pests like many other birds. They are also defenceless, and signify innocence throughout the book. When "the mockingbirds were silent" before Tom's sadly inevitable verdict is given it signifies peril as mockingbirds are usually singing and therefore foreshadows his fate.

Mockingbirds, they don't eat up our flowers, and they don't harm us, all they do is sing there hearts out for us. That is why its a sin to kill an innocent bird. Jays on the other hand eat up our bugs that don't harm us. That's why you can kill a Jay, not a Mockingbird. and READ THE BOOK. It's mentioned a lot throughout it.
