In this, the second and final outing for Hosea and Manuel; the two dim-witted Mexican crows are flying to Guadalajara and hitch a lift on a passing aeroplane. They relax and sing a bit until they spot a corn field far below; then the head down and enter the field. When they spot a scarecrow they realise it is no threat so clobber it with a stick; this in itself isn't so funny but they then proceed to try the same trick in hunter Elmer Fudd who they mistake for a second scarecrow... this time they get shot! They come up with a few more ideas but keep getting shot or in one case blown up by a grenade disguised as a corncob. Eventually they give up and decide to continue to Guadalajara... their chosen transport will take them a lot further than they intended though!
This was a fun little short featuring the characters introduced in 'Two Crows from Tacos'. Once again they aren't too bright which leads to plenty of laughs. The fact that Elmer Fudd kept getting the better of them demonstrated just how dim they were! The conflict between the crows and Elmer was pretty funny although my favourite moment was when the crows jumped from the plane and their sombreros acted like parachutes. Mel Blanc did a fine job providing the voices to the crows although somewhat surprisingly Elmer doesn't utter a word... this did make him funnier though and explained why the crows might mistake him for a scarecrow. The animation isn't bad for a cartoon of its time although it isn't as good as that from the earlier days when there was more money in animation.
