Saturday Scarecrows

Each year for the past three or four years, Otsiningo Park in Binghamton, New York has had a scarecrow contest.  Mainly non profits participate, but it is fun for the entire community.

Here are some of this year's entrants - I think today is the last day of voting.

For those outside the United States, I need to explain that Halloween is celebrated October 31 and the purpose is scary - but not too scary - fun.  Scarecrows are structures designed to scare crows and other predictors away from crops.  At this time of year they are given pumpkin faces.
Not sure if she is a fortuneteller.
The Candyman Can.

Happy Halloween!
Mr. Potatohead.  The fake crow wasn't too impressed.

Scarecrow a la Jack o'lantern.
Sorry, I think it is past cooling season.

Which was your favorite?

More during the week.

    What a fun, fun idea! In my day a scarecrow was a scarecrow was a scarecrow. Not a lot of creativity. These are fabulous!
