The arborists at Beetlebung Tree Care hope their treetop handiwork doesn’t cause an accident this week.
But it’s not their lofty tree-pruning that they’re worried about. It’s a papier-mache and hay arborist hanging at the entrance to the West Tisbury business.
His name is the Singing Arborist and the Scared Crow, and he is a scarecrow. He’s tied into the tree about 20 feet above the ground, with state-of-the-art climbing gear, including a brand new climbing rope, a saddle and a prusik. A papier-mache crow squawks beside him.
Nicholas H. Gross, formerly of West Tisbury, has been hired as a public involvement specialist/planner at the Boston engineering consulting firm Howard/Stein-Hudson Associates.
