A spokesperson for the council said: "The winners will be announced on Saturday lunchtime, during the tea party.
"We present certificates and prizes, and will post a list of where the scarecrows are so people can go and see them.
"It's a really fun event, and it causes quite a stir!
"The judges are not particularly looking for the best made scarecrows, but the best original ideas.
