A scarecrow has stood guard over the harvest for centuries. Built on a simple wooden pole and stuffed with straw, it wears a tattered flannel shirt and patchwork clothes to look human enough to fool a flock of crows. In practice the birds soon learn it is no real guardian, but the figure has become a beloved symbol of autumn and the cornfield all the same. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
