Hugo the Scarecrow is Looking for Work

Hugo lives in a garden on a farm. He's a scarecrow, and a good one at that – everyone's afraid of him, but that makes him sad as he doesn't have any friends to talk to. Instead of scaring everyone away, he'd much rather play the harmonica, only that would lure the birds back into the garden. He's in a tight spot. How could he find friends and work that would suit him better?
