Abstract
A waterfowl decoy having oscillating wings includes an oscillation mechanism in the interior cavity of a waterfowl decoy body, a pair of wings attached to the oscillation mechanism and extending outwardly from the decoy body, each wing including a wing strut having a proximal portion for attachment to the oscillation mechanism, a distal portion extending from the proximal portion, the proximal and distal portions including an elongated band disposed in a wing plane aligned parallel to the longitudinal dimension of the decoy body, the proximal portion comprising reinforcing ribs oriented perpendicularly to the band, such that reciprocating movement of the wing gears causes the wings to oscillate in a motion resembling that of the flapping wings of a bird in flight.
