ABSTRACT:
A game bird decoy assembly and a method for making same includes a lightweight planar member contoured in the form of the silhouette of a game bird. The planar member has two opposing faces. A visually and graphically accurate rendition of a game bird is applied to each face of the planar member. The planar member is foldable so as to reduce the bulk of the decoy assembly. When the planar member is in its upright position, the fold extends across the planar member at an angle relative to the vertical. When unfolded, the decoy assembly is held open by use of a support rod that is insertable within the planar member near the point of the fold. The support rod extends through the planar member, across the fold, and into the adjacent portion of the planar member. It also includes a pair of apertures for suspending one or more of the assemblies from a hunter's belt.
