Happy Halloween

I hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween. 

A little history of the Scarecrow, often associated with Halloween:

A scarecrow is a device (traditionally a mannequin) that is used to discourage birds like crows from disturbing crops.

Not only do crows feed on recently cast seed, they also gather nightly, starting with groups of a half dozen which then unite to form a group of 20 to 30 and so on until the flock is quite large and noisy. It is their habit to return to the same place each night. Thus, it is in the interest of farmers, gardeners, and homeowners to move them along (to make them someone else’s problem).
