Strawhead’s Eyes
Scarecrow in the organic garden, National Botanic Gardens, Dublin, Ireland
wind jostles the scarecrow
near the heavy-hung cornstalks
the summer is spent*
three crows that followed Jesus
have pecked out old strawhead’s eyes

What were they thinking!!
You don’t see many women scarecrows. I like it!
Who knew crows lived that long!
Nice photo and haiku!
Ha! 😀 Nice one.
Summer spent

Nice is this photo!
Greetings, RW & SK
is that not just the cutest straw friend ever. ( :
happy weekend.
I am liking the stone wall behind the cute scare crow!!!
A stone wall is almost a fence, right? 😉
those pesky crows. ☺
Awesome … I like the way how you’ve completed this Tan Renga.
The crows are not scary of the scarecrow after all. Nicely MMT!

Crows hardly ever pay attention to scarecrows—but we still make the straw-stuffed creatures! 😉
Great take-crows showed the scarecrow what they really think of it,lol!
Fun scarecrow – just for the birds really!
from scarecrows to Jesus – a fantastic leap! Your photo scarecrow looks like he’s moving his bowels in a bucket!
