LOL.
Actually, there is a pair of carrion crows around and the scarecrows don't seem to bother them although the crows' interest is not in the veg plot but in a bird table where we are putting food up for the blackbirds. I think atm, everything that might interest birds in the veg plot is covered one way or other.
As for the friendly scarecrows, they did make me jump a couple of times yesterday. I've caught a sort of glimpse of a shadow in my peripheral vision and at first thought there is someone behind me then laughed to myself when I realised what it was...
