Scarecrows

Took these scarecrow pictures at Tatton Park in Cheshire.......can't make my mind up which one I like the best

Great shots Babs.:) I like the third one.
Don't see them so much now

the middle one has to be 'aunt sally'......even looks abit like una stubbs!!!:)
now, worzel gummidge, that was a good tv programme when i was groWing up!! why dont they bring it back for the youngsters of today?. i'm sure they'd like it too.

They've really put some effort into them!

Yes they certainly have, will keep my eyes open for scarecrows from now on.:)

Yes if we get enough you could make it sticky :)

Here is a nice one. He had a giant doll last week I thought it was a joke so ditched it. But I see now they really are scarecrows

That is brilliant Beryl, well spotted.................I haven't seen any since suspect they are few and far between:)

Thanks Babs. :)
I'll have a look each time I go by and see what he puts up next

That's a cracker Beryl, he's stolen my stomach. :-rofl

Thanks Rolf. :)
I said I wandered where it had gone

The allotment next door.
The other day I thought this was a joke but it seams all the allotments are competing.
Here is another . This is in the first allotment as I cross the railway track to the estuary
Look closely at his scarf

that is brilliant Beryl, I bet they have great fun making these scarecrows :)

Lol. Thanks Babs :)
Think I'll make one

Love all those scarecrows!

Some towns/villages now have competitions for the best one.

West Kilbride (Ayrshire) has one every year! West Kilbride Scarecrow Festival 2009: Get Ready! - s1West Kilbride

The first scarecrow here was at Osborne House, IoW, at the beginning of this month. The two together were at Furzey Gardens (near Lyndhurst, New Forest) last summer.

Love the last two Catherine :). They are all lovely

These are great, I can see this developing.:)

Found this one yesterday. Couldn't get to the front a it is by the railway track.
I think it's a flying insect

December 19th
Managed to gat a front view today

AW......., it's a Butterfly, Beryl!:)

Well spotted!

Thanks Catherine.:) I thought it was a butterfly. Just caught the back of it. I went along a little wooded area to get a better shot. Slipped on a roof tile covered in leaves . went straight down.........Ouch. Still I didn't damage my camera or lens
I think they're lovely they are in the allotments by the railway track there is another but it's not accessible, it is way down the track and you can only see it from the train .If I travel on the train I'll try and capture it but with a free bus pass a train ride is highly improbable;:D

Christmas Scarecrow . In the allotments by the railway track. In xmouth

Love your Santa scarecrow Beryl, and he got a nose redder than Rudolphs:-rolling

Lol. Thanks Babs.:)
Yes. The chaps that own the allotments I think are trying to out smart each other.
I don't mind they can keep building them. I think they are good

LOL - I love it when people bother to do stuff like that.

Yes. It's nice :). He's a very old chap too

Have found another at Mottisfont today!:)

LOL, that's nice, has a Scottish touch.:)

LOL LOL LOL LOL I like the dangling slippers!

LOL - I LOVE the hat ;)
