Questions And Answers On Moonbird By Harper Lee

One Opinion from the book moonbird is, " To become extinct is the greatest tragedy in all nature." Page 107,chapter 8, "extinction is forever".

He relates all this back to why we should care about species and there life and how every living organism was made for a purpose and we must help eachother to

It is organized in sequence because it says, "B95 (the bird they're observing) stands on one leg in the shallow lagoon, surrounded closely by his flock mates. He tucks his bill under his wing, but doesn't drop his guard." And so on but it is doing it so that it's in order not time involved just organized in step by step. I think this an effective way to present the information because it shows the process in which the red knots go to bed, detect a predictor and how they react in sequential order. It is a perfect way to display this
