Scarecrow

General
A scarecrow is a feature added in Public Beta 30, along with Birds. They are not an item that may be found or crafted, but are built by the player out of blocks. These structures are rather open to the player, and can get quite creative.

Crafting
A functional scarecrow can be manufactured with the following items:
 * A head - Skeleton Skulls or Pumpkins may be used.
 * Arms - Any type of Fence may be used as arms.
 * A body - This can be as plain or as creative as you want!

Uses
This contraption can be used as a | companion to go see the wizard, or as a farmer's best friend. Scarecrows will frighten away any birds attempting to take crops.
