Every time I see a scarecrow, a memory comes alive in my childhood.

Every time I see a scarecrow, I think of a movie that carries traces of my childhood and has a place in my mind.

Wizard of Oz.

Or wait, let me tell you this. The story of a lion, a tin man and a scarecrow…

remember?

Check it out, I'm sure you'll remember

(The Wizard of Oz) is a 1939 American fantasy musical film.

Yes, this movie may be the movie of my childhood; but to me, this story is an allegorical, symbolic work that includes more than a children's book...

Wasn't it the same as the Smurfs cartoon? Every smurf living in the village was actually an individual describing the systemic structure of the state.

Anyway, I'll go into more detail about it later. Our current topic is the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz.

I don't know if you remember!

The Wizard of Oz is a movie about the adventures of a brainless scarecrow, a heartless lion, a heartless tin man and a little girl!

At the end of the movie, the Wizard of Oz makes the little girl return home, giving heart to the tin man, reason to the scarecrow, and courage to the lion.

After the wizard of Oz had made everyone happy, when it was time for the scarecrow, he gave him the reason he wanted so much and said these words to him:

“Anyone can have a brain. It's a simple feature. Even the heartiest creatures that crawl on the earth or swim in sticky water have brains. There are universities where I come from. Great training places. You go there to become a great thinker.

They think about very deep topics with brains no different from yours. But they have something you don't have. A diploma.

So, what is the conclusion to be drawn from this photograph and article?

First of all, thanks to this color photograph, we remembered the movie "The Wizard of Oz", let's admit it, it helped me tell this story :)

As for the scarecrows, they are actually a part of life. They are objects that are somewhat sad, calm, sad, always reminding people of sadness. But; As the Wizard of Oz said, “Anybody can have a brain. This is a simple feature…” So maybe we shouldn't make it so dramatic…

Think about it, the fear given to a crow does not even have as much effect as the fear given to a person, the crow escapes and escapes at the slightest reflex.

What about human!

The more people get used to fear, the more they begin to forget the existence of that fear.

And the result!

In fact, it is a significant fact that as time passes, the scarecrows are called ordinary and simple, just by their name, which does not even benefit them…

After writing this article, I did some research.

What is this scarecrow, why have you ever thought in human form?

We often come across scarecrows in the fields in movies or TV shows.

Well, have you ever wondered about the history of scarecrows? When were handrails first used?

Scarecrow, or scarecrow for short, refers to a human puppet planted in a vineyard, garden and field in order to scare the birds away from the cultivated crop or crop. Here are some interesting facts about railings that you haven't heard before.

1. Scarecrows actually live up to their name. Made for farmers to scare away birds to protect their crops

2. The first known scarecrows in history were built 3000 years ago by the Egyptians to protect their wheat fields, especially along the Nile River

3. In the past, windmills were also used as guardrails to protect fields

4. But once the birds get used to the scarecrows, it's no longer an obstacle to stop them

5. In addition, hanging cans from trees can also make noise and frighten birds. However, after a while, the birds realize that this is a trick and enter the fields.

6. Greek farmers fashioned their scarecrows to resemble Priapus, the son of Dionysus and Aphrodite

7. Greek farmers' use of the Priapus form was based on a legend. According to the legend; Priapus lived near the vineyards and was very ugly. Whenever Priapus wandered in the vineyards, he would scare away the birds.

8. However, in addition to the appearance of the scarecrow, birds are also afraid of the human odor emitted by the scarecrow's clothing.

9. Japanese farmers have also used scarecrows in the past, but they hung old rags, meat and fish bones on the scarecrows. The smell itself was enough to keep all living things away from their crops, not just the birds.

10. German farmers used to make wooden witches for their fields. Because they believed that witches would draw the evil spirit of winter into their body.

11. Surprisingly, a scarecrow festival is held in England every year. This festival, called the Urchfont Scarecrow Festival, has been held since the 90s and welcomes 10,000 people every year.

12. The first known use of the word “scarecrow” in English novels was in Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe in 1719.

13. In medieval England, young men called “bird scarers” were working, who wandered around the fields with bags of stones to throw at the birds.

14. However, after the plague epidemic, the population declined drastically. For this reason, the farmers could not find staff to work and started to make scarecrows to put in their fields.
