I think Fall might really be here - it is time to build yourself a scarecrow. I love them, really. Most of the time I think they are meant to scare off children and wandering ne'er-do- wells. Maybe you should make one to keep your neighbor out of your yard, you know, the one that steals your zucchinis? Wait, we want them to take the damn prolific squash. Never mind.
