Meet "Sally" the Scarecrow

Today we built a scarecrow and I have been told that it's job is to scare the birds away (usually from the garden). We planted our scarecrow in the garden but since there is nothing left for birds to pick at, we are hoping that it scares the bear away from the compost bin.

Of course our scarecrow isn't that scary looking but maybe the fact that it looks human is enough to deter the bears. But knowing our luck the bear will probably knock her over and maul her!
