Scarecrows started out as human-like structures made out of clothes stuffed with hay for scaring crows from fields of corn and other crops they love, but have now evolved into an art form.
Here's one I wanted to save for today. This one is "Hay Ganesh", the remover of obstacles.

Very Colorful! It is not a scarecrow but a much revered Hindu God.
ReplyDeleteHay Ganesh ! That's really cute punning on the hay. I suppose it also shows the globalisation of cultures. A few years ago Lord Ganesh sitting on a haystack would have been unheard of in the US.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that brilliant?! People are so talented!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a scaretot- the crows won't mind it at all!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful scarecrow art, but I'm not sure that he could scare a crow!
ReplyDeleteMy eyes are rolling over that pun.
ReplyDeleteI thought at first is one those blow up turkeys.

Hay Ganesh! Lord Ganesh literally sitting on hay... here in India he is worshipped as a god who removes all obstacles... nice one
ReplyDeleteWow, this is so enchanting! Reminds me of fairies and gnomes for some odd reason.
ReplyDeleteThis cute Ganesh will actually attract birds, and not scare them away. He is loveable.
Thank you Alana for linking up with Esha and me for #WordlessWednesday
I love the name this Ganesha...Hay Ganesh in itself such a thoughtful piece of creativity :)
