It would scare me, if I were a crow.

Enjoy the April showers.

Somehow I don't think you're in Kansas anymore . . . or Israel

Based on my experience with the Dutch and German cultures, if the raincoat was still usable it would be on a person, not a scarecrow! My landlady in Germany had hand-me-downs from HER grandmother that she wore!

wait! wouldn't the garden be empty in the winter?

Mimi said...

Ah, lovely, you've given us one from your Dutch Collection.
That's the kind of garden I love.

I'd imagine it is Cate, but this was taken last fall ;). It's been so miserable and rainy here for so long that I'm reduced to digging into my archives for new shots. Sigh... (We need the rain, we need the rain, we need the rain...)

You need that guy there for such a beautiful garden.

That's funny, never seen such a well-dressed scarecrow, maybe off on his way to the Wizard ;)

It definitely looks like a raincoat is in order - though it does look nice and lush.

Unknown said...

That gave me a good laugh! And oh, what a beautiful garden. That is the garden I aspire to have one day.

that's a beautiful garden and a fun scarecrow. i really should pay more attention to the overall aesthetics of my garden rather than just the veggie production ;)
