Scarecrow Pictures: Hey, Diddle, Diddle

Cat and Dog Scarecrows, Wooden Plaques

It takes a lot of work to recreate the scene from the Mother Goose nursery rhyme, "Hey, Diddle, Diddle" because there are so many characters involved....

David Beaulieu

Hey, diddle, diddle,
The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

The cat scarecrow in the picture above looks very stylish with its fiddle, while the dog scarecrow is clothed in a standard dog Halloween costume. The other characters in the Mother Goose nursery rhyme are represented with painted wooden plaques.
