Brain Out 2 Level 227

Overview

Crows eat the corn in the field. A scarecrow stands at the edge of the field, and a birdcage and shovel sit nearby. The solved frame shows the scarecrow now moved into the middle of the cornfield and the crows flying away, with the message "The cornfields should have a good harvest this year!".

• Difficulty: Easy
• Estimated moves: 1

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Notice the scarecrow's position. It stands at the edge of the field, not among the corn.

1. Do not chase the crows. Swatting at the birds directly does not work.

1. Relocate the scarecrow. Drag the scarecrow from the edge into the middle of the cornfield.

1. The crows flee. Once the scarecrow stands among the corn, the crows fly away. The "The cornfields should have a good harvest this year!" result appears.

Strategy & Reasoning

The crows are not scared because the scarecrow stands at the edge. Moving it into the middle of the cornfield drives the crows away.

The scarecrow already exists, but it is parked at the boundary where the crows have learned to ignore it or where it does not cover the crop. You do not need the birdcage or the shovel. Relocating the scarecrow into the center of the corn plants puts it where the crows are feeding, and once it stands among the crop the birds flee.

Why move the scarecrow? A scarecrow already exists, but it is standing at the very edge of the field, away from where the crows are feeding on the corn. The birds have learned to ignore it there. The birdcage and shovel nearby are not needed. Relocating the scarecrow into the middle of the cornfield puts it right among the crop, and once it stands there the crows fly away. The trick is that the deterrent was already built — it was simply in the wrong place. Moving it to where the crows actually are solves the problem.

Move the existing scarecrow from the edge into the middle of the corn, and the crows leave.
