Answer:

Bird imagery is associated with Lady Macduff and her son. Lady Macduff says that even a small wren will defend its young against an owl, presenting herself as a protective mother. Her son is also described as a “poor bird.” These images convey the family’s innocence and vulnerability, as well as Lady Macduff’s courage and determination to protect her child.
