Chester Hill Community Garden




You don't see a scarecrow very often in the populated suburbs of a big city, but here on the corner of Hector St and Waldron Rd, Chester Hill, Bert the Muppet is doing a fine job.

  2. I think Bert the Muppet just cracked the bird up, so they forget what were they suppose to do in that garden. It is really funny scarecrow though.

  13. Hi, great blog. I grew up in Chester Hill and got a kick out of seeing the Bert Scarecrow in the garden by the railway line. Keep up the good work!
