Logline: Two weathered scarecrows must investigate what's been ravaging their crops to avoid being replaced.

Meet Maurice and Lump. Two scarecrows who have been doing just that for a long time now... well, almost. While they both do the same job, they each have a different approach. Lump is pretty conventional. He's scary, intimidating and aggressive. Maurice on the other hand doesn't mind the company of a crow and enjoys listening to what they have to say. Once the crow has spoken their mind, they fly away peacefully. Unfortunately, Lump has always had his doubts about Maurice's methods, so when crops start disappearing around the farm, he has a hunch as to why. 

Themes: Communication, trust, doubt, utility
