Sometimes scarecrows are just too soft-spoken to intimidate the birds. Not so with these clanging noisemakers.
| Prep Time: Under 1 hour | |
| What you need: | |
| Jar lids
Hammer and nail Tin cans Twine or string | |
| Seasons: Summer | |
| Materials: cans, string | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. | For each noisemaker, use a hammer and nail to poke a hole through the center of two jar lids and the bottom of an empty can. |
| 2. | Knot one end of a piece of twine and string on the lids, knotting the twine between them. Tie another knot one inch above the upper lid. |
| 3. | Thread the twine through the hole in the can so that one lid serves as a clapper and the other catches the wind. Tie a loop in the end of the twine, and the can is ready to hang in your garden. |
