Crows are one of the first birds that farmers wanted to scare away from their crops. As simple as it sounds, âscarecrowsâ got their name because corn farmers would erect imitation people in their corn fields to keep the crows away, as crows do eat a lot of corn. Scarecrows are still mostly seen in farms and other crop farming places, but now are popular additions to the back yard vegie patch and garden.
