New favorite thing I’ve learned in my wildlife classes:
There is a “device” used to scare away problem wildlife (mostly avian) that’s just literally called Scarey Man®
here he is. The Scarey Man
®
honestly he is so…..entrancing….…
Y’all sciencey types now what a scarecrow is, right? Y’all don’t need to go making up new fangled names for them.
as both a hillbilly and a scientist I take issue with this rejection of Scarey Man®. He is protecting my crops and my science.
I am also a hillbilly and grew up a dirt crop level farmer, and I can assure you i know my goddamned scarecrows and that is no goddamn scarecrow. That’s a bona-fide Scarey Man®.
